ami right that "FONT=True" in "/etc/vconsole.conf" which

with this value is the cause for the following error and

my F17 machines had all "SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16" as kernel-param
so i guess "FONT=latarcyrheb-sun16" because "True" is pretty dumb
to specify a font :-)


All of my F18 systems which were updated from F17 via fedup have...

[egreshko@f17x etc]$ cat vconsole.conf
FONT=latarcyrheb-sun16
KEYMAP=us

So, maybe you've uncovered a bug in whatever upgrade process you used?

seems so, i found this one:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=799401

Interesting, because I didn't update to fc17, nor use the alpha in my final test machine, I installed from the install DVD when released. And I still see "True" after logout from a user. Not sure I notice it elsewhere.

(runs to logout of the fc18 test machine)

Do not see it on my fc18 test machine, also installed from production DVD, and fully up-to-date as of 3am.

Other than now I know where I saw that, I don't know that the cause of the issue is advanced by this test.

These tests may actually shed some light:

fc17-64:root> find /etc -type f | xargs grep -li 'font.*test'
/etc/prelink.cache
/etc/cron.daily/tmpwatch
/etc/mateconf/schemas/pluma.schemas
/etc/fonts/fonts.dtd
fc17-64:root>


fc18-64:root> find /etc -type f | xargs grep -li 'font.*test'
/etc/prelink.cache
/etc/ld.so.cache
/etc/cron.daily/tmpwatch
/etc/udev/hwdb.bin
fc18-64:root>
