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?
