Console-setup was already installed. The problem arose exactly simultaneously with my installing the firmware-linux metapackage. 'dpkg -r'ing the firmware-linux-free and -nonfree packages fixed the problem. Thank you for your suggestion: > dpkg-reconfigure console-setup After using the above, and rebooting, whatever changes the above made did not appear to "take" i.e. the teeny tiny console font always reappeared. It was this tenacity that inspired my reckless, but successful, use of 'dpkg -r.' Thank you so much, though, for responding to my plea for help! -- Bob Bernstein -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
