Logs showing in password textbox #638

Open yagarea opened 2 months ago

yagarea commented 2 months ago

Hello, when I start my PC and LY comes up it shows with log in password textbox completely overflowing out of prompt box and sometime out of screen.

Typically it is some info about bluetooth. I am filling this as bug report but if there is a way to prevent this, please let me know.

Thank you for your support

PS: I can provide screenshots if you want to

@yagarea You can try switching TTY. With systemd, this would involve modifying the Ly config, as well as the systemd service (due to #623 not being ready yet).

Hi guys, I was struggling with this too but I have a workaround (at least on my system).

All I did was create a systemd service unit that calls a shell script that executes "dmesg -n 1".

The service:

[Unit] Description=Suppress logging to console because that is fucking annoying

[Service] Type=oneshot ExecStart=/usr/bin/dmesg-suppress.sh

[Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target

The script: #!/bin/sh /usr/bin/dmesg -n 1 && echo "'dmesg -n 1' success!" > /tmp/dmesg-suppress.log

This might not be entirely desirable on all systems, but for me I don't care. Obviously you would have to adapt this if you're running OpenRC or whatever init system you have. Hope it works.

Otherwise, I really like this DM so far. The cmatrix option got me :laughing:
