Read fntguide.dvi for details. What you want is:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{lmodern}
\usepackage{lettrine}

% The all important line:
\renewcommand{\ttdefault}{lmvtt}

\begin{document}
\lettrine{L}{atin} Modern fonts are enabled with the \texttt{lmodern} 
package. Note that they use the T1 encoding so you also need 
\verb|\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}| in your preamble.
\end{document}
