Absolutely, after a reboot. It is a documented bug somewhere, reported for factory. I went straight to remove those, having read about it previously, here or in the beta forum. I had booted to level 3, then run "init 5" to reach graphical mode. I had an editor session working in VT 5, I needed to get there to get the results of a previous test saved. I exited XFCE, logged in again as "failsafe" (xorg session type "failsafe", not grub failsafe). Got a terminal, issued "init 3" to kill graphics, got to text mode, and there I had the terminals, intact, and I could save my file. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

Thanks, but I will not install it, I do not want plymouth. Those packages above had simply escaped my previous removal. Reasons: - I have a separate boot partition, and initrd is large enough as it is. - I prefer booting in text mode with all the gory text messages passing by. A splash screen bores me to death, so I disable all those, too. That way I know that I have failed services to investigate: fam, spamd, nfs, loading kernel modules. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E.

Good to know; but as I said, I also need to reduce the size of initrd; disabling is not enough.

I don't really know - just that it works O:-) I tried several combinations. Someone suggested that. I get the bootup messages, with green for success, red for failed services, similar to what systemv displayed on boot. Once I got those messages in tty 5, so perhaps that "console=tty1" is to tell it where to print. But the graphical tty1 with background image after the tty1 is lost, i liked it.

NVidia and nouveau, not the proprietary driver.

Initial openSUSE releases using systemd were putting X on tty1. Maybe console=tty1 is an obsolete workaround found prior to restoration of X to tty7. Some other distros are still putting X on tty1 if booting directly to X, but on tty7 if loading X after logging in on a tty, musical chairs systemd style. :-p

That . was end of sentence. Completion of video= with a supported video mode was implied, e.g. video=1400x1050@75 or video=1600x900.

I don't want it on VT7, because then the graphical session goes to VT8. It might be interesting on VT11, though, but VT1 is about fine.

Ok... I deleted the entry. I might use 1920x1080@60, which is what X my uses. But without the entry I think I do not get the video mode change somewhere at the boot start, and going from VT1 to VT7 seems faster. Text size seems the same as I had previously, so all is good. Almost... I do not have the graphical background of VT1. No idea what sets it.
As I taboo Plymouth at install time, I don't worry about it getting installed by accident and trying to prettify my boot messages with spindly fonts and low contrast colors.
That's what I did, or I thought I did. Nevertheless, I got those libraries back on my system at some point, or they were never deleted at install time (plymouth itself was never installed, it seems) On my tests, I deleted too much, resulting on removal of suspend, too. I had to reinstall suspend, and this brought back in some plymouth related libs. It can not be avoided, aparently. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

What don't you want on VT7? That's where XDM/GDM/KDM goes unless configured to goto VT1. On all my 12.3 systems, boot messages are on VT1, and KDM is on VT7 (when its running). I don't see anything on VT8 unless there's already an Xorg session capturing VT7, or I'm booted to Mageia, where X can wind up on any of VT[1-10] depending on whether X was already started before logging in on a VT and which VTs are hosting sessions. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

On this machine the boot messages went to VT7 one day, and KDM to VT8 later. Then I used the console=tty1 option again. It may be plymouth which goes there. Is not it a graphical presentation?

Simple setting the plymouth theme to "details" does that.
Is there any user-level documentation about that? http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/Plymouth/ doesn't provide much; and the first three Google search result pages failed me either.

Removing plymouth-branding-openSUSE and plymouth-scripts, tabooing them.
This bug has been fixed today in plymouth HEAD, it was also fixed on factory and probably an update will be released for older products.
Thanks, but I will not install it, I do not want plymouth. Those packages above had simply escaped my previous removal.
Reasons:
- I have a separate boot partition, and initrd is large enough as it is.
+1
- I prefer booting in text mode with all the gory text messages passing by. A splash screen bores me to death, so I disable all those, too.
+1
That way I know that I have failed services to investigate: fam, spamd, nfs, loading kernel modules.

Definitely, I would be lost w/o the ability to see the boot sequence even though it flashes by faster and faster, and the ability to boot to runlevel 3/1. <jfyi> And I too see the boot messages on vt7, sometimes 8, rather than *always* on vt1 and this repositions X to the *other* vt[8,7]. But due to not being able to return to a vt# from the X session, I need to "init 5" and then issue "rcxdm restop"/"rcxmd start". That action releases vt7 for the X session, and I still have the ?graphical? background on vt1. </jfyi> -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

This might be cured by the "console=tty1" option I use.

And this was cured in my case by removing plymouth. Other people say that just disabling does the trick.

Nay :-) I want this: [FAILED] Failed to start Load Kernel Modules. [FAILED] Failed to start LSB: Console mouse support. [FAILED] Failed to start Daemonized version of spamassassin. [FAILED] Failed to start Network Manager Wait Online. automatically printed at the end. I may create a service in "/etc/systemd/system/", using "After=multi-user.target", and there run your command. I have done it. We'll see if it runs next time, see if it prints or not. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
