 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 |

| 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 |
| frontear | what was the list-sessions command again? | 06:46:41 |
| ElvishJerricco | if you can get to the debug shell what do you see in loginctl list-sessions? | 06:46:48 |
| frontear | thats the one | 06:46:59 |
| frontear | only tty1 and tty2 | 06:47:03 |
| ElvishJerricco | getty and sddm respectively? | 06:47:15 |
| frontear | a manager and manager-early but on no tty | 06:47:16 |
| frontear | first seat0 second sddm | 06:47:33 |

| ElvishJerricco | ok, well, I don't think this is what we really want to study because it's not the problem we were looking at :P But it might be useful to pack up its journal and save that somewhere if you have the ability to do so. Like pack up all of /var/log/journal/ in a tarfile or something | 06:48:28 |
| frontear | aight, the root squashfs should have enough space for that | 06:48:52 |
| ElvishJerricco | because I expect if you reboot you won't get this scenario again reliably | 06:48:53 |
| ElvishJerricco | In reply to @frontear:matrix.org
aight, the root squashfs should have enough space for that squashfs isn't writable | 06:49:09 |
| ElvishJerricco | so that'll just be tmpfs | 06:49:15 |
| frontear | ah yes | 06:49:20 |
| frontear | lemme plug usb 2 in | 06:49:25 |
| ElvishJerricco | yea you're gonna need to mount a drive or upload it somewhere | 06:49:33 |
| ElvishJerricco | frontear: actually lets just use magic-wormhole | 06:49:55 |
| ElvishJerricco | that way you can just send it to me p2p | 06:50:03 |
| frontear | never heard of it, what's the basic usage | 06:50:30 |
| ElvishJerricco | nix-shell -p magic-wormhole and wormhole send ./file I think. So journalctl --flush, tar up /var/log/journal, and send that file | 06:51:09 |
| ElvishJerricco | it'll tell you a phrase I can use to connect and download it | 06:51:36 |
| frontear | gotcha | 06:51:46 |
