Did you find a machine that consistently horks getty or what well I've had setups that consistently fuck with getty | 06:38:43 |
 frontear | well not consistent and on gnome, but it does like to intermittently drop into x11 | 06:38:43 |
| frontear | kde doesnt wanna boot in period tho | 06:38:54 |
| frontear | at least for me | 06:38:56 |

well I've had setups that consistently fuck with getty I still haven't identified 100% of why it happens though, and what frontear showed with GNOME has some notably different symptoms | 06:39:42 |
| ElvishJerricco | (which I should document in the issue before I forget...) | 06:39:50 |
| ElvishJerricco | Do you have a github username I can mention? Same as matrix? | 06:40:02 |
| frontear | yeah @Frontear | 06:40:21 |
| frontear | Alright screen frozen, though no tty available, not even tty9 | 06:41:49 |
| frontear | mightve typo'd in the kernel params lets try that again | 06:42:02 |
| frontear | woah uh | 06:43:48 |
| frontear | tty1 has sddm | 06:43:52 |
| frontear | and it works | 06:43:54 |
| frontear | tty1 has never worked before | 06:43:58 |
| frontear | oop and now it refuses to respond | 06:44:07 |
| frontear | dammnit | 06:44:08 |
| frontear | i switched off to tty9 and it breaks | 06:44:16 |
| frontear | oh wait nevermind it was tty2 | 06:44:27 |
| ElvishJerricco | wait are you sure it's tty1? | 06:44:30 |
| frontear | so its here?? | 06:44:30 |
| ElvishJerricco | oh | 06:44:31 |
| frontear | thats.. very strange | 06:44:42 |
| frontear | i wonder if this is also an x11 thing | 06:44:46 |
| ElvishJerricco | K900: I thought sddm was supposed to start on tty7? | 06:44:49 |
 K900 | It should | 06:45:02 |
| K900 | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/nixos-unstable/nixos/modules/services/display-managers/sddm.nix#L75 | 06:45:28 |
| frontear | well well, it also hasn't auto logged in | 06:45:31 |
| ElvishJerricco | yea when I tested the getty bug with sddm+plasma I concluded it was immune because sddm starts on tty7 and when it autologins it just replaces itself on tty7 with plasma | 06:45:36 |
| frontear | lets see what tty7 has | 06:45:37 |
| frontear | nothing hm | 06:46:33 |
