Tried, but doesn't work.
With sc:
text (normal) -> X (works) -> black
or
text (normal) -> X (throws error) -> black
With vt:
text (boots normal, but then too small) -> X (works) -> text (too small)
or
text (boots normal and stays that way) -> X (works) -> text (now too small)
Reverting to sc is _not_ an option. I assume it will be removed
from the system at some point in the future, that's why dealing
with vt and configuring it is probably the right way to go.
