Bug#563035: console-setup: bottom 2-3 lines are cut off in virtual terminals with Fixed14
Package: console-setup
Version: 1.50
Severity: normal
When I reconfigure console-setup to choose the Fixed font in size 14
(see debconf information below) and reboot the machine, the bottom
2-3 lines are cut off in virtual terminals.
This is a problem similar to question 1.2 from
/usr/share/doc/console-setup/FAQ.gz
but I do not change the font size.
Fixed14 looks the same as Fixed16. So, I wonder whether the font size
is really changed.
Note: I use gdm.
