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.
