Squares instead of russian letters when booted with systemd

After upgrading OpenSUSE 11.4 to 12.1 I have following problem: when the system is booted with systemd and a user logs on to text console, there is little squares displayed instead of russian letters. If one selescts sysvinit in GRUB, then all works fine.
The question is how to fix russian letters under systemd?

Maybe you should report a bug about systemd (which is still in a sort of beta IMHO) and revert to sysvinit (as many did for several reasons) for the time being.

There is an update coming for systemd, but you can download it from

http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/fcrozat:/system/openSUSE_12.1/

and try if it solves the issue.

There is version 37-3.153.1, but I’ve already tried to update to 40-1.1 from Factory and unfortunately it doesn’t solved the issue. Is it makes sense to also try 37-3.153.1?

I can’t know, but I would use a version prepared for 12.1 rather than for 12.2

If the issue then is not solved, report in bugzilla and mention that you
are using that package.

I’ll try. Thanks for your help.

So, there are a few bugs from systemd and pOtter not want it understand
Yesterday i changed setting on my Vostro 3550 with hybrid graphics (intel+amd) (Opensuse 12.1).
Before this i used only intel HD 3000 and console font Cyr_a8… . All was good.
I got the source package for the xorg-x11-driver-video package, got the intel-driver-2.18, changed spec file for option --enable-sna and rebuild package. Next, i got amd 12.2 the proprietary driver, made the rpm package and install.
Wau !!! Now i use only the AMD HD6600.
All very cool!
but after this i got change order load drivers and a few bugs systemd.

This problem partially have concerning to post
[systemd-devel] systemd-vconsole-setup: /usr/bin/setfont failed with error code 71](http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2011-June/002562.html)

This problem with
systemd-vconsole-setup.service
He not work.

You can change his code as next …

After=sysinit.target
Before=shutdown.target

ExecStart=/bin/setfont /usr/share/kbd/consolefonts/Cyr_a8x14.psfu.gz

just do not work as waited
i do not can find any a mans or a docs about this one
possibly a systemd project yet not write doc
