NAME

6       systemd-vconsole-setup.service, systemd-vconsole-setup - Configure the
7       virtual consoles
8

SYNOPSIS

10       systemd-vconsole-setup.service
11
12       /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-vconsole-setup [TTY]
13

DESCRIPTION

15       systemd-vconsole-setup sets up and configures either all virtual
16       consoles, or — if the optional TTY parameter is provided — a specific
17       one. When the system is booting up, systemd-vconsole-setup.service is
18       called by systemd-udevd(8) during VT console subsystem initialization.
19       Also, systemd-localed.service(8) invokes it as needed when language or
20       console changes are made. Internally, this program calls loadkeys(1)
21       and setfont(8).
22
23       Execute systemctl restart systemd-vconsole-setup.service in order to
24       apply any manual changes made to /etc/vconsole.conf.
25
26       See vconsole.conf(5) for information about the configuration files and
27       kernel command line options understood by this program.

CREDENTIALS

30       systemd-vconsole-setup supports the service credentials logic as
31       implemented by ImportCredential=LoadCredential=/SetCredential= (see
32       systemd.exec(1) for details). The following credentials are used when
33       passed in:
34
35       vconsole.keymap, vconsole.keymap_toggle
36           The keymap (and toggle keymap) to apply. The matching options in
37           vconsole.conf and on the kernel command line take precedence over
38           these credentials.
39
40           Note the relationship to the firstboot.keymap credential understood
41           by systemd-firstboot.service(8): both ultimately affect the same
42           setting, but firstboot.keymap is written into /etc/vconsole.conf on
43           first boot (if not already configured), and then read from there by
44           systemd-vconsole-setup, while vconsole.keymap is read on every
45           boot, and is not persisted to disk (but any configuration in
46           vconsole.conf will take precedence if present).
47
48       vconsole.font, vconsole.font_map, vconsole.font_unimap
49           The console font settings to apply. The matching options in
50           vconsole.conf and on the kernel command line take precedence over
51           these credentials.
