‘systemd-vconsole-setup’ by default operates on /dev/tty0, the
currently active tty. Since it puts /dev/tty0 in Unicode or ASCII
mode, if the X server is currently active when it runs, keys such as
Alt-F4 won't reach the X server anymore. So use /dev/tty1 instead.
Systemd's systemd-vconsole-setup.service reads locale and console
font/keymap settings from these files. In particular, it sets the
virtual console to UTF-8 mode depending on the LANG setting.
This removed the need for the kbd job.
