Package: console-cyrillic Followup-For: Bug #496181
Here the issue turns out to be in permissions. I've been running "cyr" as a normal user; cyr -v shows errors; running as root works. To that normal user, /dev/tty* are not accessible, because they have the following as permissions: With a user logged in: crw------- 1 ftn tty 4, 3 2009-02-15 17:30 /dev/tty3 With no user logged in: crw-rw---- 1 root root 4, 30 2009-02-15 12:23 /dev/tty30 I don't know if those are _the_ permissions which are not enough; if I've changed the permissions intentionally, or if some package did it without my consent. /etc/init.d/console-cyrillic seems to be running it as root? I don't remember whether "cyr" worked without root before. *** verbose get_console_fd: Permission denied get_console_fd: Permission denied get_console_fd: Permission denied Loading 256-chars 8x16 font from file `/usr/bin/../share/console-cyrillic/UniCyr_8x16.psf'. set_kernel_font: Operation not permitted get_console_fd: Permission denied Loading 256-chars 8x16 font from file `/usr/bin/../share/console-cyrillic/UniCyr_8x16.psf'.
