The error message seems to come from systemd-logind itself and looks like it is printed by the kernel onto your ttys, based on the timestamp in front of it. First of all, are you sure this is actually a problem? Try pressing enter, you should get a fresh prompt. In fact, in your original message I see the “debian login:” prompt. Can you enter your username, does it ask for the password, does the login actually work? If not, can you please also provide /var/log/syslog and /var/log/auth.log? Ideally from a fresh boot, directly reproducing the problem, so that the files are not too big. Thanks. -- Best regards, Michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
