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.

Then I guess you'll have to contact nvidia for support.
