Thanks for the following link's answer:

I confirmed the valuable functionality of the sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup command. It opens a TUI and is possible configure the TTY in peace.

Again in Ubuntu Server (24.04) happens the following:

sudo dpkg-reconfigure (press twice the "tab" key)
console-setup console-setup-linux

When is executed the sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup-linux command "nothing" happens. I mean in the terminal is shown nothing.

Question

  • What does the sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup-linux command do?

I want understand clearly the difference between console-setup and console-setup-linux

I executed the following commands:

  • man dpkg-reconfigure: but there are no indications of neither console-setup nor console-setup-linux
  • man console-setup: works

But

...$ man console-setup-linux
No manual entry for console-setup-linux

“sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup-linux” command reconfigures the installed console keyboard, it also facilitate installed font settings in the linux operating system. That is why it contains this “ sudo dpkg-reconfigure” statement in the command
