JohnyLPM

JohnyLPM

J

JohnyLPMOP•4/27/24, 5:48 PM

Mervius

M

Mervius•4/27/24, 5:49 PM

Kyle Gospo

K

Kyle Gospo•4/27/24, 5:49 PM

Dmesg won't help me, need systemd service log

JohnyLPM

J

JohnyLPMOP•4/27/24, 5:49 PM

but only every other time you boot?

Mervius

MMervius wonder if sddm is crashing on startup

Kyle Gospo

K

Kyle Gospo•4/27/24, 5:49 PM

If it is it's very specific

Mervius

M

Mervius•4/27/24, 5:49 PM

JohnyLPM

J

JohnyLPMOP•4/27/24, 5:49 PM

JohnyLPM

J

JohnyLPMOP•4/27/24, 5:49 PM

and should I do it from tty when it happens

tryhardsoccermomswag

T

tryhardsoccermomswag•4/27/24, 5:50 PM

yes

JohnyLPM

J

JohnyLPMOP•4/27/24, 5:50 PM

alright, I'll boot and reboot so it happens again

JohnyLPM

JJohnyLPM but only every *other* time you boot?

Mervius

M

Mervius•4/27/24, 5:51 PM

It happened from every full power off or restart from OS boot for me

JohnyLPM

J

JohnyLPMOP•4/27/24, 5:51 PM

so wait, what command to output the log?

Mervius

M

Mervius•4/27/24, 5:51 PM

i haven't tried just pressing the power button when the screen is black

JohnyLPM

J

JohnyLPMOP•4/27/24, 5:51 PM

that's what I do, and then boot again and it's normal

JohnyLPM

JJohnyLPM so wait, what command to output the log?

tryhardsoccermomswag

T

tryhardsoccermomswag•4/27/24, 5:51 PM

sudo dmesg | fpastesudo dmesg | fpaste

JohnyLPM

J

JohnyLPMOP•4/27/24, 5:52 PM

I thought Kyle said dmesg wasn't enough

tryhardsoccermomswag

T

tryhardsoccermomswag•4/27/24, 5:52 PM

oh

Kyle Gospo

KKyle Gospo If it is it's very specific

M

M2•4/27/24, 5:52 PM

I had something like this occuring with Nvidia for drm atomic flip failing.

Mervius

M

Mervius•4/27/24, 5:52 PM

it could be something the os tries to do when it powers off that breaks something

JohnyLPM

J

JohnyLPMOP•4/27/24, 5:52 PM

to get the systemd service log

Mervius

M

Mervius•4/27/24, 5:52 PM

that doesn't occur when you just press the power button when the screen is black

tryhardsoccermomswag

T

tryhardsoccermomswag•4/27/24, 5:52 PM

which service...

JohnyLPM

J

JohnyLPMOP•4/27/24, 5:52 PM
