 The build system of kbd is clever enough to reconfigure itself!
*very_weird*.  BUT, the required videomodes files are missing.

 OpenSuse (again) has a bug for this on x86_64, but it is open.

 Looking in the source, I can't find 'videomodes' in any of the
Makefile* variants.  So, a question for people using 32-bit x86 :
does resizecons work for you ?  If so, is this on kbd-1.15.2 or
1.15.3 ?  And which videomodes files do you have ?

 A very old document at
http://luv.asn.au/overheads/virtualconsoles.html#fonts
suggests that the command 'restoretextmode -w COLSxROWS' (e.g.
132xSomething) is needed to create these files, but I don't have
such a command.
