Package: console-tools Version: 1:0.2.3dbs-60 Severity: important
When using the splashy package (Version 0.1.6) to have a graphical bootup sequence, console-screen.sh crashes in the section "Setting up per-VC fonts: ". I get the follwing output when booting: Tue Jan 24 22:27:16 2006: Setting up per-VC fonts: /dev/tty1, /dev/tty2, /dev/tty3, /dev/tt y4, /dev/tty5, (!) [ 873: 0.000] --> Caught signal 11 (at 0x48, invalid address) <-- Tue Jan 24 22:27:17 2006: (!) [ 873: 0.000] --> Caught signal 11 (at 0x1a1, invalid add ress) <-- /dev/tty6, Setting up ALSA...done. Note that I had to manually switch from the splashy screen to console 1 and to press Ctrl+C to continue the boot process. The last output before the crash was "/dev/tty6, ". The first output after pressing Ctrl+C was "Setting up ALSA...done." I had the following config file "fonty" from the fonty package in /etc/console-tools/config.d: ###DEBCONF### # the configuration of this file was done by debconf and can be # overwritten. # # you should use dpkg-reconfigure fonty to configure this file. # SCREEN_FONT=iso15graf-16 APP_CHARSET_MAP=iso15 FALLBACK_TAB=fonty SCREEN_FONT_vc1=iso15graf-16 APP_CHARSET_MAP_vc1=iso15 FALLBACK_TAB_vc1=fonty SCREEN_FONT_vc2=iso15graf-16 APP_CHARSET_MAP_vc2=iso15 FALLBACK_TAB_vc2=fonty SCREEN_FONT_vc3=iso15graf-16 APP_CHARSET_MAP_vc3=iso15 FALLBACK_TAB_vc3=fonty SCREEN_FONT_vc4=iso15graf-16 APP_CHARSET_MAP_vc4=iso15 FALLBACK_TAB_vc4=fonty SCREEN_FONT_vc5=iso15graf-16 APP_CHARSET_MAP_vc5=iso15 FALLBACK_TAB_vc5=fonty SCREEN_FONT_vc6=iso15graf-16 APP_CHARSET_MAP_vc6=iso15 FALLBACK_TAB_vc6=fonty After removing this file the crash wasn't triggered anymore. I think this is because the "Setting up per-VC fonts: " of console-screen.sh isn't executed then. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (9, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-1-k7 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages console-tools depends on: ii console-common 0.7.55 Basic infrastructure for text cons ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.4.69 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.5-12 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libconsole 1:0.2.3dbs-60 Shared libraries for Linux console ii sysvinit 2.86.ds1-11 System-V-like init utilities Versions of packages console-tools recommends: ii console-data 2002.12.04dbs-52.1 Keymaps, fonts, charset maps, fall -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
