2018-10-24 14:03:14 Vyacheslav description Changing font in "/etc/default/console-setup" does not work After reboot in generated file "/etc/console-setup/cached_setup_font.sh" needed font passed to setfont twice. For example if was specified FONT="Uni3-Terminus12x6.psf.gz" in cached_setup_font.sh will be setfont '/etc/console-setup/cached_Uni3-Terminus12x6.psf.gz' '/etc/console-setup/cached_Uni3-Terminus12x6.psf.gz' After manual deletion second parameter and rebooting font applied as expected Why need to copy font from "/usr/share/consolefonts" to "/etc/console-setup" when setfont can take it directly from "/usr/share/consolefonts" ? Why ubuntu not fully moved to systemd and not uses "/etc/vconsole.conf" instead of magic generated scripts like "/etc/console-setup/cached_setup_font.sh" ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.04 Package: console-setup-linux 1.178ubuntu2.7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.15.0-38.41-generic 4.15.18 Uname: Linux 4.15.0-38-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.9-0ubuntu7.4 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: LXQt Date: Wed Oct 24 16:41:15 2018 PackageArchitecture: all SourcePackage: console-setup UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) Changing font in "/etc/default/console-setup" does not work After reboot in generated file "/etc/console-setup/cached_setup_font.sh" needed font passed to setfont twice.
