Subject: [gentoo-user] Strange consolefont error

Every now and then I get the following error on bootup:
putfont: PIO_FONT: Invalid argument
In effect, (/etc/init.d/)consolefont fails to start properly. I have to
restart it manually -- and if I do, it works just fine (i.e. it changes
the font).
What makes it strange, in my opinion, is the `every now and then'-part.
This error doesn't occur every time; that is, sometimes consolefont
starts up just fine, no error messages, font changed.
Is this some kind of bug -- if so, what exactly, do you think, is
`buggy'? Or might it just be some setting somewhere that might be set up
properly?
This is my font-settings in /etc/rc.conf:
KEYMAP="sv-latin1"
EXTENDED_KEYMAPS=
CONSOLEFONT="iso01.14"
CONSOLETRANSLATION="8859-1_to_uni"
