Hi,
I just noticed there is a getty process being restarted permanently:
T520 systemd[1]: getty@getty.service: Service has no hold-off time, scheduling restart.
That's a nonsense service. getty services are named getty@${SERIAL_DEVICE_NAME}.service, and "getty" is not a serial device. I suspect a problem in a script somewhere that created this pseudo service. Please check the contents of /etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants
Can anyone explain what the getty process is good for, and whether it can be disabled?
systemctl disable getty@getty.service Or delete the unwanted link in /etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants manually. Regards Martin
Thanks Axel
PS: yes, there is an @opensuse.org mail address for me....maybe next time...
