[Bug 1511975] Re: /lib/systemd/system/console-setup.service has incorrect ExecStart

 

Sorry about the late reply. I can't say that I know exactly how to debug
it, however there is a notice in /lib/udev/rules.d/85-keyboard-
configuration.rules that:

# Framebuffer console created.  Set up the font on all virtual consoles
# again.  This races with Plymouth if fbcon is built into the kernel; but
# the worst case should simply be that fonts don't get set up properly.

Also my initrd get regenerated when I run sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-
setup however that doesn't seem to change anything.

Title:
  /lib/systemd/system/console-setup.service has incorrect ExecStart

Status in console-setup package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  /lib/systemd/system/console-setup.service as provided by this package
  (confirmed in vivid and wily) specifies:

  [Service]
  Type=oneshot
  ExecStart=/usr/bin/loadkeys /etc/console-setup/cached.kmap.gz

  The "ExecStart" line will set the keyboard map but not the font,
  therefore the font remains at the default VGA font and framebuffer
  console mode is not enabled.

  The correct line which will set up both the keyboard map and the font
  is:

  ExecStart=/bin/setupcon

  The complete modified file is attached.

  I would be willing to submit a pull request on the relevant git
  repository if someone could point me in the right direction.
