[opensuse] no console login after 12.1 to 12.3 dist-upgrade
Hello, I just dup'd two of my 12.1 vmware systems to 12.3 and the upgrade appeared to complete successfully. However after rebooting the systems I can no longer access the system console, the only thing on the console is the message "piix4_smbus 0000:00:07.3 host smbus controller not enabled" which is an informational message. If I boot the system and remove vga=0x314 from the command line I see the starting status of the services until it reaches "Reached target Multi-User." at which point to all I can to is shift+pgUp or pgDown. The only failed service to start is plymouth-start.service which is documented in Bug 780976, yet looks like it's made a reappearance again unless something else is causing it. agetty is running and I've killed it and it's restarted by systemd but still no login prompt. Does anyone have any insight it what's causing this and how to resolve it? I've yet to file a bug for this but it's coming. -- Later, Darin -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Did you try Alt-F1 or Ctrl-Alt-F1?

I can't believe it was actually on a different virtual terminal. I've never had to use them when connecting to vmware consoles before, and didn't realize they were accessible. I'm feeling like a moron right now, thanks. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
