I had the same problem on feisty today.
After dpkg-reconfigure console-setup
when booting without usplash all was OK, but with usplash it was not.
This is what I found out about that:
(1) /etc/init.d/console-setup does nothing when usplash is running.
(2) /etc/init.d/usplash closes usplash and would runs
/etc/init.d/console-screen.sh which sets fonts to, but is disabled when
console-setup is installed.
(3) /etc/init.d/usplash does not run /etc/init.d/console-setup as it should (as
I think)
So I changed in /etc/init.d/usplash :
if type setupcon >/dev/null 2>&1; then
CONSOLE_SCREEN=
to
if type setupcon >/dev/null 2>&1; then
CONSOLE_SCREEN='/etc/init.d/console-setup start'
and now it works here. :)
