[gentoo-user] Systemd Fonts problem

[Jacques Montier]

Hello all,

I encounter three problems:

1- Grub2 does not display accentuated French letters (? instead of é)
In /etc/default/grub i have the line
: GRUB_FONT="/boot/grub/fonts/DejaVuSansMono.pf2"
#ls /boot/grub/fonts/DejaVuSansMono.pf2

2- systemctl start systemd-vconsole-setup gives an error.
It does not find the DejaVuSansMono file.

vconsole.conf :
KEYMAP=fr
XKBLAYOUT=fr
FONT=DejaVuSansMono

3- Without the line FONT=DejaVuSansMono, systemd-vconsole-setup starts
without error, but is inactive after reboot.

My locales :

locale -a :
C
C.utf8
fr_FR
fr_FR.utf8
POSIX

Thanks a lot for your responses and help.

Hello again,

Finally, i resolved my fonts problem.

1- In /etc/defautl/grub I commented the two lines
#GRUB_TERMINAL=console
#GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=text

Now Grub is launched in graphic mode with the DejaVuSansMono.pf2 font size
20.

2- I set the keymap : localectl set-keymap fr-latin9

My /etc/vconsole.conf

KEYMAP=fr-latin9
XKBLAYOUT=fr
XKBMODEL=pc105
XKBOPTIONS=terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp
XKBVARIANT=latin9

3- systemctl start systemd-vconsole-setup works fine.

Sorry for the noise !

Have a nice week end

Cheers,
