How to suppress GRUB boot messages?

I'd just like to tidy up the text mode boot process a little bit. I added the "quiet" parameter to the kernel line in GRUB and it works nice. But GRUB outputs something like this with every boot:
Booting 'Arch Linux'
... all the grub commands ...
Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel.
Is there an easy way to disable that output? And of course get it back visible when boot fails...
edit: changed word "s p i l l s" -> "outputs", for some reason board censored it

You've answered your own question.
Grab the patch from ubuntu and build your own package.
Look for the quiet.diff patch in..
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/m … u4.diff.gz
I had the same itch to scratch and this was how i did it. I don't have the patched grub anymore though.

  • How to edit GRUB boot options from within Arch.

    Hello!
    I'm having a problem with scanlines (both in X and tty), and I think that the solution is the vga= boot option.  I, however cannot edit the GRUB boot options from within GRUB, because the commands go off my screen (overscan.)
    I was wondering if there is a way to edit the default GRUB options from withing Arch.  I have GRUB on /dev/sdb0 and chainload with the windows bootloader, it it matters.

  • How to Suppress a warning message in Reports

    Hi All,
    I am getting REP-32751: Warning: Some text segments are missing warning message when ever i open a report and also while run the report in the browser. I am not able to find the missing text segments. Is there any way to suppress this warning message in oracle reports 10g?. Please let me know.
    Regards,
    Prasad.

    Just was curious and was in Metalink anyways and looked up your Error:
    >
    Another workaround: open the report under the desired NLS_LANG, and OK all the warning messages. Once the report is opened, save it (under a different name). This will fill out missing text segments with blanks,which is OK because these strings never appear in the report anyway (theyshould have been deleted...)

    Dear SDN Members,
    how is it possible to suppress the 'Number' column in a BAL output where the number of messages is printed?
    Thanks and kind regards,

    HI,
    1. SERVERTHREADS does not contain/limit the count of sessions one can have .
    2. Count of ports will help you decide what is the default SERVERTHREAD count , in your case its 20.
    3. the count 20 signifies the number of threads which a transaction can use ( here threads are nothing by the operating system level threads, to do with the processes and processor).
    4. If you have multiple transactions and you want to improve the performance of them ( in case of slow response or so). You can increase the thread count , to make more threads work for your transactions. Again , this does not limit the count of sessions .
    5. I did not understand the obejctive behind limiting the sessions and avoiding users from accessing . I think , this defeats the whole purpose of having cubes then. You have many cubes ,and huge number of users who pull data and essbase and its kernel are capable of handling this . If you still want to restrcit, might as well set their security ( by letting them not to access cubes).
    Hope this adds value

  • [SOLVED] how to prevent Xorg from clearing boot messages in scrollback

    I have an updated Arch install with MATE and LightDM. LightDM autologin is enabled, so I normally boot directly to my desktop. I like seeing the messages that flash by during boot, so I deleted the word "quiet" from the linux line in my grub.cfg. Because I want all the messages to still be there after flashing by (in case I want to scroll through them later), I followed the advice here https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Di … t_messages and I also increased the scrollback buffer and enabled early KMS start.
    Despite all the above, I can only scroll back to the beginning of the boot messages if I boot into non-graphical mode (e.g., by adding "systemd.unit=multi-user.target" to GRUB command line). If I allow a normal boot to my destkop and THEN go to non-graphical mode with "sudo systemctl isolate multi-user.target" to look at the boot messages, I notice that I cannot scroll back very far at all--most of the messages that flashed by during boot are gone. Therefore, it seems to me that either lightDM or Xorg is resetting the scrollback buffer and erasing all but the last few boot messages.
    So, how do I tell LightDM or Xorg (whichever one is the culprit) *not* to clear the scrollback buffer, so that when I get out of graphical mode and into non-graphical mode the boot messages are all still there?

    Since the answer to my original question seems to be "it is not possible," I will make this my last post to prevent the thread from going off-topic.
    I came up with a simple workaround that (almost) recreates the old /var/boot/log:
    1) put "quiet" on grub2's kernel command line so that only* [FAIL] messages show up, so that I don't have to deal with the scrollback buffer
    2) create a startup script with the following contents (script or at least the setterm command must run as root because the setterm command needs to be able to read from /dev/vcs1):
    #!/bin/bash
    # this script will dump the text of tty1 to /var/log/boot, with same formatting as on the screen
    export TERM=xterm
    setterm -dump 1 -file /var/log/boot
    exit 0
    * Unfortunately, even in quiet mode grub2 starts printing all the boot status messages to screen once it encounters a [FAIL]. Therefore, if the [FAIL] occurs early enough in the boot process, the beginning of the messages will scroll off the screen and the workaround won't work. I spun off my two questions related to this nuisance into their own threads:
    a) How to make grub2 actually only print [FAIL] messages during boot? https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=184702
    b) How to print the contents of console's scrollback buffer to a file? https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 9#p1439359
    I hope I can figure out how to do one of the above, because then the workaround would be perfect.
    Thanks for the help, guys!

  • Warning message about CMP problem when launching query - how to suppress?

    Dear Experts
    How can I suppress warning message that did not stop the query from running?
    I encounter this message when 1st launching it. The next run , it does not show. But if user run it  i think may still show. How to suppress it?
    The message is :
    =================
    Characteristic [Z_I_NN_FN]Application Sub Grou of the MultiProvider is not provided by the PartProvider ZC_00N; this means it is not identified. However, [Z_I_NN_FN]Application Sub Grou is compounded to 0COMP_CODE and 0COMP_CODE is identified with characteristic Z_I_MM_FM for InfoProvider ZC_006.
    In this case, there is a compounding or CMP problem with [Z_I_NN_FN]Application Sub Grou in the MultiProvider for PartProvider ZC_006.
    Processing characteristics with CMP problems in the data manager is very complicated and can have a negative impact on performance. The data manager cannot use SIDs for these characteristics (at least not in the corresponding InfoProvider) because the initial SID = 0 for [Z_I_NN_FN]Application Sub Grou is not the same as the initial compound key for 0COMP_CODE [Z_I_NN_FN]Application Sub Grou (that is, when real values are posted in ZC_006 for 0COMP_CODE).
    For this reason, hierarchies for [Z_I_NN_FN]Application Sub Grou must often be read at leaf level. Furthermore, it is not possible to use hierarchy aggregates for [Z_I_NN_FN]Application Sub Grou or for the remaining InfoProviders.
    System Response
    Where possible, the system tries to avoid negative impacts on performance. Unfortunately, such performance issues cannot be avoided if the correct results are to be displayed.
    Procedure
    When working with important MultiProviders, you should always avoid characteristics with CMP problems.
    ====================
    Please advise how to address CMP problem error message when launching query.
    regards
    Pascal

    Hi Pascal,
    Why dont you select those compounding objects in Multiprovider itself.As far as i understand while activating the MP it throws an error if compounding objects are not selected.
    One more thing to add which i noticed you can try running the query on analyzer if you are running it on RSRT.
    You can see the data even if MP is not active on analyzer but not on RSRT.
    Hope it helps.
    Regards,
    AL

    : Here's a couple of ideas,
    : - Try setting system.message level to a higher number (maybe
    : 20) prior to calling your new form and then set it back when

    Actually, the only way to "suppress" this message is to either
    reset the :SYSTEM.FORM_STATUS or (much recommended) set the
    message level to 25 and commit the form before the new_form.
    After all, the reason for this message is that the user has
    supposedly made changes to the data that need to be committed. If
    you are getting this message w/o making changes, then you need to
    check your code because something is setting a base table value.
