login from console tty1 (only tty1, tty[1-5] are ok , bash report :
-bash: no job control in this shell when grub.conf have CONSOLE=/dev/tty1

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.grub.conf have kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.26-gentoo-r1 root=/dev/sda2 splash=profile,silent video=uvesafb:1680x1050-32,mtrr:3,ywrap quiet CONSOLE=/dev/tty1
2. login con first console (tty1)
3.bash report : -bash: no job control in this shell



Expected Results:

(other console are ok)

if i remove CONSOLE=/dev/tty1 from grub.conf login from tty1 are ok, but init message are missplaced.

[Comment 1 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) 2008-09-10 20:17:37 UTC]

Wouldn't this be a sys-boot/grub problem instead of a media-gfx/splashutils problem?

[Comment 2 Michele Schiavo 2008-09-10 20:35:06 UTC]

problem just appears after upgrade to media-gfx/splashutils-1.5.4.2

i don't if it's a grub's problem

Could you please try booting with console=tty1 instead of CONSOLE=/dev/tty1?

[Comment 4 Michele Schiavo 2008-09-14 05:54:22 UTC]

changing in console=/dev/tty1
splash message is not show (message of service and/or image of splash), changing console during boot is not working.
just when xdm (gdm) start, screem will show gdm login but keyboard is not working.

here my ls -al /dev/ without udev (mount --bind)

Could you please also post the contents of your /proc/cmdline?

[Comment 6 Michele Schiavo 2008-09-14 08:24:52 UTC]

cat /proc/cmdline 
root=/dev/sda2 splash=profile,silent video=uvesafb:1680x1050-32,mtrr:3,ywrap quiet CONSOLE=/dev/tty1

[Comment 7 Michele Schiavo 2008-09-14 08:32:23 UTC]

OK, now I'm slightly confused :)  So if you use 'console=tty1' instead of 'CONSOLE=/dev/tty1', does what you said in comment #4 still apply, or is everything working fine?

[Comment 9 Michele Schiavo 2008-09-14 08:49:35 UTC]

comment 4 was with console=/dev/tty1

with console=tty1 everything is fine.

Excellent, let's close this bug as 'fixed' then, as console=tty1 is the suggested (by the splashutils elog messages) way of doing things.
