I want to use Unicode in my console and properly configured the corresponding config files. It works well in /dev/tty1 but not in other consoles. Simple calling "setfont <font file>" in the corresponding consoles fixes this problem. The init system calls already setfont -C /dev/tty{1,..,12} and the font is indeed changed. Nevertheless the console displays wrong characters once I enter 8bit characters (redirction to a file verifies that only the display is effected). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Select UNICODE="yes" in /etc/rc.conf 2.Adapt /etc/conf.d/consolefonts: CONSOLEFONT="Uni3-Terminus32x16" (from Debian), CONSOLETRANSLATION="8859-1_to_uni" 3. Since setfont itself works well on the current console the problem is the option -C.
