     <title>Description</title>
 
-    <para><filename>systemd-vconsole-setup.service</filename> is an
-    early boot service that configures the virtual console font and
-    console keymap. Internally it calls
-    <citerefentry project='mankier'><refentrytitle>loadkeys</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
-    and
-    <citerefentry project='die-net'><refentrytitle>setfont</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
+    <para><filename>systemd-vconsole-setup</filename> sets up and configures either all virtual consoles, or — if the
+    optional <replaceable>TTY</replaceable> parameter is provided — a specific one. When the system is booting up it's
+    called by <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-udevd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> during
+    VT console subsystem initialization.  Also,
+    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-localed.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> invokes
+    it as needed when language or console changes are made. Internally, this program calls <citerefentry
+    project='mankier'><refentrytitle>loadkeys</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry> and <citerefentry
+    project='die-net'><refentrytitle>setfont</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
