After installing Debian 11, first virtual console is "occupied" by messages from the kernel and I cannot use it to logon to the system.
On Debian 10 this was different, after booting process, the virtual console was freed.
Can I do something about it, or this is the "natural" behavior of the Debian 11?

Re: First virtual console is "occupied"
I'm using sddm and noticed that tty1 was "occupied" as you say. Assuming you're using sddm, to quote bugreport.cgi?bug=953328
So I commented the two entries and added the above two lines and and tty1 is back to normal.This seems to be caused by entries in /lib/systemd/system/sddm.service
Changing:back to [as per the previous version]:Code: Select all
Conflicts=getty@tty1.service getty@tty7.service After=getty@tty1.service getty@tty7.service
fixes the problem.Code: Select all
Conflicts=getty@tty7.service After=getty@tty7.service
DebianStable
Code: Select all
$ vrms
No non-free or contrib packages installed on debian! rms would be proud.
