systemd-vconsole-setup.service systemd-vconsole-setup Configure the virtual consoles

`systemd-vconsole-setup.service`

`/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-vconsole-setup` TTY

## Description

`systemd-vconsole-setup` sets up and configures either all virtual consoles, or — if the optional TTY parameter is provided — a specific one. When the system is booting up, it's called by systemd-udevd 8 during VT console subsystem initialization. Also, systemd-localed.service 8 invokes it as needed when language or console changes are made. Internally, this program calls loadkeys 1 and setfont 8.

Execute `systemctl restart systemd-vconsole-setup.service` in order to apply any manual changes made to `/etc/vconsole.conf`.

See vconsole.conf 5 for information about the configuration files and kernel command line options understood by this program.
