| rrq | just discovered that my /sbin/init doesn't start any getty on tty1-6 ??? | 02:58 |
|---|---|---|
| rrq | has it stopped using /etc/inittab ??? | 03:03 |
| fsmithred | did you try to drop to console and just got black? | 03:10 |
| rrq | yes.. except tty1 which still shows the boot output | 03:10 |
| fsmithred | I think I've seen that happen. I get something similar - if I kill the desktop with alt-sysrq-k it drops me into the black void. | 03:12 |
| fsmithred | and I can't get out of it. | 03:12 |
| rrq | F7 | 03:12 |
| fsmithred | nope | 03:12 |
| fsmithred | sysrq to reboot | 03:12 |
| rrq | ok I have slim... and c-a-f7 brings back X | 03:12 |
| fsmithred | yeah, if I do ctrl-alt-f1 then f7 brings me back | 03:13 |
| fsmithred | but killing the xserver leaves me hung in the dark | 03:14 |
| rrq | mmm so what has changed with /sbin/init ??? | 03:14 |
| fsmithred | is it really that, or is it some session crap? | 03:15 |
| rrq | well according to my /etc/inittab /sbin/init should spawn getty on tty1-6 | 03:15 |
| fsmithred | what was the last thing you did before this happened? | 03:16 |
| fsmithred | what does ps tell you? | 03:16 |
| fsmithred | I have 6 | 03:16 |
| rrq | no getty at all | 03:16 |
| fsmithred | init q | 03:17 |
| fsmithred | re-read /etc/inittab | 03:17 |
| fsmithred | been waiting since 2003 to use that | 03:17 |
| rrq | yes agreed... I just recent upgraded ti sysvinit-core=2.96-7+devuan2 (chimaera-proposed-updates) | 03:19 |
| rrq | I'll go back to 2.96-7+devuan1 ... biab | 03:20 |
| fsmithred | smoking gun | 03:20 |
| fsmithred | uh-oh... | 03:21 |
| fsmithred | oh, ok. I already rebooted it | 03:21 |
| fsmithred | *** 2.96-7+devuan2 | 03:21 |
| fsmithred | looks like I've had that version for three weeks | 03:23 |
| * rrq lunch break | 03:24 | |
| fsmithred | I'm gonna do sleep break soon | 03:24 |
| fsmithred | see you on the other side | 03:24 |
| rrq | ok. running "/sbin/getty 115200 tty2 &" does what it should | 03:43 |
| rrq | fsmithred: found it. simply that the rc 2 line locked up waiting for a process that didn daemonize | 05:03 |
