   Hello,   
   I saw your Reddit's post, wrote a comment, and write to Debian Linux kernel   
   mailing list as soon as I discovered changing the kernel solved the issue.   
   Sorry for noise... 😀

Hello,

Everyone, 

I am surprised this group has responded to my Reddit post.  I am the OP who       found this issue of he character © covering the entire virtual       consoles from Ctrl-Alt F2 to F6 and F8 to F12.  It first came to my       attention whenever I boot up,        the last screen before the desktop is a screen full of ©'s. And whenever I shutdown, the first screen is again       the character © covering all of the output of the       shutdown. Fortunately this issue        has not affected my normal computing habits. The Debian 11 OS seems to run OK       on this stock Dell Inspiron 620. I will follow this thread to see if this       could be resolved. 

Thanks for       your help,

Lyman aka Whirligig_FPV
