  • no worries! i’m not the fastest to respond myself. i do want to help though. to explain the command,

    • journalctl searches the journal, a database of messages from the units on your system managed by journald
    • -b0 means “this boot’s messages”, not the last boot or the one before…
    • -p4' means "WARNING (4) or higher" (3, 2, 1, or 0). these priority levels are pretty old, long before my time. you can see them in man syslog`, but 0 is “alert” and 7 is “debug”

    i say all that because i naively hoped a malfunction on your system would appear as a high-priority message in the journal, and i wanted to spare you the back-and-forth that this kind of troubleshooting usually entails. in this case, though, i didn’t really see anything in those logs, so i suspect the culprit has been filtered out.

    i will keep trying my best to help, don’t worry, but i understand if you get fatigued and just want to move on.

    there are some odd gaps in the logs where i can’t tell what’s happening. now that you know how to send logs to something like dpaste, let’s open the floodgates. i don’t mind wading through a sea of logs to find something (kind of my day job too)

    to give the kernel’s account of what happened:

    dmesg -H | curl -s -F "content=<-" https://dpaste.com/api/v2/
    

    that’s everything from the start of the system to now, so it’s best if you do it soon after booting.

    finally, i had you filter to WARNING (4) and above with -p4 but it didn’t show anything. how about…everything?

    journalctl -b0 | curl -s -F "content=<-" https://dpaste.com/api/v2/
    

    that will be a lot of information but it should be informative!





  • thanks, can you please give me the output of

    journalctl -b0 -u systemd-modules-load
    

    i’m curious why it’s taking 30s. maybe the other two services as well

    the dmesg you posted is very truncated, just like a screenful of info. you can usually pipe command output to curl with these pastebin sites. i understand if you’re concerned about sensitive info in dmesg though
