VT_DISALLOCATE: Device or resource busy #99

Closed x70b1 closed 4 years ago

x70b1 commented 4 years ago

If I run physlock on a latest Arch Linux I got an error log: physlock: /dev/tty0: VT_DISALLOCATE: Device or resource busy

Sometimes the screen is just black without the login prompt. But enter a password unlocks the system. Somtimes the screen is still visible but locked and typing the password unlocks too.

I have not checked it with any other device at the moment.

For me this is solved now. I guess it was a dependency somewhere. Everything works fine now.
