Something about the latest kernel update made the standard consoles
unusable. X is OK. And I can ssh in just fine. So it's not "critical",
yet. There is a problem with alt-F2 and the like. It appears that the
window is either in a VERY large font or is somehow magnified so that
only a little bit of it shows.

Does that sound like a set of symptoms anybody knows how to fix?
