Re: Console Font for Lower Vision People

[Alex ARNAUD <aarnaud@hypra.fr>]

    The main issue here is despite of the font selected at each startup
    the TTY doesn't load it. You need to run manually "setup-con"
    blindly to make it working. This
      seems to be this issue.
    
    Best regards.
