Bug 303771 – sys-fs/udev - "Waiting for uevents to be processed" output > 1 line

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED OBSOLETE

[Description André Terpstra 2010-02-06 16:59:15 UTC]

On this particular system, one and only one script output line does not fit. It could be a framebuffer problem.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.boot the system
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
the line with "Waiting for uevents to be processed" behaves oddly, since the trailing '[OK]' is offset by 1 or 2 blanks, which causes the last character to be displayed on the next line.

Expected Results:  
should fit on one line like all the other ones

[Comment 1 André Terpstra 2010-02-06 17:01:47 UTC]

of course this has only trivial severity... forgot to enter that right away

[Comment 2 André Terpstra 2010-02-13 16:17:13 UTC]

For what it's worth, some additional info: I briefly noticed a few extra characters being displayed on the screen, I believe they are '^@'.

[Comment 3 Matthias Schwarzott 2010-03-14 18:50:48 UTC]

Does this disappear, if you modify this range in /etc/init.d/udev:

        ebegin "Waiting for uevents to be processed"
        udevadm settle --timeout=${udev_settle_timeout:-60}
        eend $?

append ">/dev/null" to the udevadm-line.

[Comment 4 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) 2013-01-26 22:08:54 UTC]

This is quite old bug. Please check with current udev-197-r3 or higher with USE="openrc" enabled to get udev-init-scripts also pulled in.

Thanks! Report back to us here.
