Running RHL 4.2

On all 6 virtual console displays some incorrect characters are
being displayed.  All ascii characters 20-2f are being displayed
as 30-3f.  Spaces are zeros, dashes become equals, etc. All other
characters are correct.

I have tried numerous stty options and setterm options.  Nothing
changes. X session displays are fine.  Everything seems to be
working well.  This happened some time ago and went away when I
rebooted, but came back again later.  I don't remember the circumstances
when the bad display recurred.

Has anyone run into this before?

Of course I could reboot but that is not the unix way.  I'll have to do
that in a couple of weeks when I have to move this box.  I've got 98 days
uptime right now.  Certainly no record but it's bragging rights around here.
