Brief update on the systemd update to 219.

The fun happens in: https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/openSUSE:Factory:Staging:E OpenQA would be already largely OK, except that the letter "v" changed (and only the letter "v") during sshd startup. [...] We don't actually know why the font loading changed.

The font loading never changed — I can reproduce the issue on 13.2 with systemd 210. Discussed with upstream at http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-February/028605.htm... TLDR: systemd needs to augment 71-seat.rules to call vconsole-setup again.

I debugged this with coolo. The font loaded now in OpenQA is the one we specify in /etc/sysconfig/console, "lat9w-16.psfu" The failing openQA needle from the old system is some other fun (egg shaped 0 with a dot inside) and if on old systemd we do "systemctl restart systemd-vconsole-setup.service" we get the new and current one. So whatever changed in systemd made it use the font we actually want already. (We are not sure how it fixed this, 90-vconsole.rules perhaps or other things.)

[http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2015-02/msg00273.html] The underlying bug is that fonts are applied at an inappropriate time when the console is still in flux, so you either see one or the other font. As such, the dracut "fix" is not one; if it sets the right font, that is just an accident, because *more* modules may get loaded after dracut has passed control, resetting the font again. In particular: i915, something which may not actually be tested in the vesafb-using qemu environment of openqa. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Hi,

Brief update on the systemd update to 219.

The fun happens in: https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/openSUSE:Factory:Staging:E

OpenQA would be already largely OK, except that the letter "v" changed (and only the letter "v") during sshd startup.

There is the comment that a dracut version update from 037 to 041+ is required to fix this, although I do not see the connection.

In this case you need http://git.kernel.org/cgit/boot/dracut/dracut.git/commit/?id=027565d0233f76e...

among other commits in the systemd dracut module for everything to work as before.

"among other"? *sigh* Well, I just sent this fix above via SR 287363 Our dracut maintainer Thomas Renninger is still on vacation sadly. Ciao, Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Sorry Marcus, I didn't realize that Thomas was on vacation, I'll get your sr accepted and pushed.

No worries! My change sadly does not seem to have helped. https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/openSUSE:Factory:Staging:E The OpenQA runs still seem to fail with the incorrect console font. Ciao, Marcus
