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