[Touch-packages] [Bug 433897] Re: Console/VT font is (randomly) not set (sometimes) on some machines. Stuck with the default VGA BIOS font.
Bug still persist. Font settings (size) doesn't save through reboots. Ubuntu version: 16.04.2 console-setup version: 1.108ubuntu15.3 I was found the workaround to fix this problem in here https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=759657. You need to add the following file: /etc/udev/rules.d/90-setupcon.rules ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="vtconsole", KERNEL=="vtcon*", RUN+="/bin/setupcon" It worked in the my case. ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #759657 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=759657 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to console-setup in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/433897 Title: Console/VT font is (randomly) not set (sometimes) on some machines.
