Well, looks like you've selected a framebuffer-only font that console-
tools doesn't support. To quote the console-setup/fontsize-fb debconf
question:

 Please select the size of the font for the Linux console.  When the
 size is represented as a plain number then the corresponding font can
 be used with all console drivers and the number measures the height
 of the symbols (in number of scan lines).  Otherwise the size has the
 format HEIGHTxWIDTH and the corresponding fonts can be used only if
 you use framebuffer and the kbd console package (console-tools
 doesn't work for such fonts).  Currently these fonts can not be used
 if the framebuffer you use is based on the RadeonFB kernel module.

I expect we'll switch to kbd in edgy+1, but not for edgy. Until then the
practical consequence of this is simply that your selected font won't be
used.
