I don't remember how far back this began, but possibly when systemd first appeared in ~12.1M3 last summer. Neither splashy nor bootsplash are installed on any of my systems. All my Grub stanzas include splash=verbose on cmdline. AFAICT, plymouth though installed never appears to run, which is my strong preference. To reproduce [i945G host gx62b]: 1-boot (with 3 on cmdline) 2-login on tty2 3-login on tty3 4-login on tty4 5-# init 5 on tty3 6-login in KDM3 7-$ startx -- :1 on tty4 Actual results: 1-KDM is on tty7 2-:1 X session is on tty5 Expected results: 1-KDM is on tty7 2-:1 X session is on tty8 Alternate reproduce [rv380 host big31]: 1-boot (with 3 on cmdline) 2-login on tty3 3-# startx Actual results: 1-KDE4 session is on tty2 2-login prompts on tty1, tty2, tty4, tty5, tty6, tty7, tty8, tty9 after KDE4 exited Expected results: 1-KDE4 session is on tty7 2-login prompts only on tty1, tty2, tty4, tty5, tty6 after KDE4 exited Alternate 2 reproduce [rv380 host big31]: 1-boot (with 3 on cmdline) 2-login on tty2 3-login on tty3 4-login on tty4 5-# startx on tty3 6-$ startx -- :1 on tty4 Actual results: 1-root's KDE4 is on tty6 2-:1 X session is on tty7 3-no login prompt on tty6 after KDE exited Expected results: 1-root's KDE4 is on tty7 2-:1 X session is on tty8 3-login prompt on tty6 after KDE exited Note: I don't expect this to matter, as I've not tested stock, but noting in case it might. I have /lib/systemd/system/getty@tty1.service as a symlink to /etc/systemd/system/getty@tty1.service, which contains two non-default lines: ExecStart=-/sbin/agetty %I 38400 --noclear TTYVTDisallocate=no Default omits --noclear and has yes for ...allocate. cf. bug 721660 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
