Hi Debian!!
Because of a quirk (vc's and displaying graphical characters to make boxes ;-) ) I got the console-tools package to show graphical characters.
I put this in /etc/console-tools/config:
SCREEN_FONT=default8x16.psf.gz APP_CHARSET_MAP=cp437_to_iso01.trans
Works great on vc#1, the first one.
Now the config file warns that with framebuffers this only is good for vc #1. OK. So I tried this to get my characters to show up on all vc's:
SCREEN_FONT=default8x16.psf.gz SCREEN_FONT_vc2=default8x16.psf.gz SCREEN_FONT_vc3=default8x16.psf.gz SCREEN_FONT_vc4=default8x16.psf.gz SCREEN_FONT_vc5=default8x16.psf.gz SCREEN_FONT_vc6=default8x16.psf.gz # APP_CHARSET_MAP=cp437_to_iso01.trans APP_CHARSET_MAP_vc2=cp437_to_iso01.trans APP_CHARSET_MAP_vc3=cp437_to_iso01.trans APP_CHARSET_MAP_vc4=cp437_to_iso01.trans APP_CHARSET_MAP_vc5=cp437_to_iso01.trans APP_CHARSET_MAP_vc6=cp437_to_iso01.trans
which, sad to say, does NOT work. Can anybody tell me what I do wrong?
Because you got caught in the "do not modify the console-screen.sh script" game.
Once the new one got used everything works as advertised.
Doesn't anybody do this?
