Hello Sam and Javier,

You have reported the following two bugs in console-setup:

-------------------------------------------
After console-setup was first installed, it corrupted all my text mode
consoles. After I rebooted, everything was fine.
-------------------------------------------
Every time I go from X to vt a I have to exec dpkg-reconfigure
console-setup and select the same options.

Seems like dpkg-reconfigure console-setup is not saving persistently my config.
-------------------------------------------

I am closing these bugs now.  This is not because of some change in 
console-setup.  The recent Debian kernels use framebuffer in almost all 
cases and the bugs you have reported never occur when framebuffer is 
used.

Thanks for your support of Debian.

Anton Zinoviev
