[Bug 433897] Re: [karmic] does not set font since upstart transition

[Psy[H[]]

Same in Natty.
But it seems to be the problem with KMS. Font and encoding from console-setup are applied to VT's just before KMS is initiated. And then KMS sets everything to default. 
If you run 'udevadm trigger' after boot, your console-setup settings will be reapplied.

Title:
  [karmic] does not set font since upstart transition

Status in “console-setup” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: console-setup

  Since the Karmic transition away from init.d scripts to upstart
  services has started, the font is no longer set at bootup. This
  results in unreadable user prompts, whenever applications output non-
  ascii characters to screen and it also affects graphic box characters
  used by ncurses, such as for debconf dialogs.
