Google can't seem to point me to an answer. I did a fresh install of TW a month ago, 20201111 IIRC. On it the vtty prompts are naked, nothing but the prompt on the top line. /etc/issue.net exists, but /etc/issue does not, even after upgrade to 20201214. What else is missing?
The prompt comes from this variables (run "set"):
The only significance of the prompt to the question is its position WRT what's missing.
The welcome message comes from "/etc/motd".
That's even less relevant.
There is also:
cer@Telcontar:~> cat /etc/issue Welcome to \S - Kernel \r (\l).
That's the general idea. As I wrote, it's missing...

And possibly "/etc/issue.net" - for network logins. And I have just re-discovered /etc/issue.d/
...yet /etc/issue.net is not missing.

Methinks you missed the relevance of TW. Some things have gotten changed in TW in the moons since 15.1 release. In fact, I do get the resulting kernel version announcement prior to the prompt on a remote login:
Welcome to openSUSE Tumbleweed 20201214 - Kernel 5.9.14-1-default (0). s2846 login:
I get it in all my vtty's. but do not have a clue where to look for what is different between your install and mine (on 4 boxes). -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode
