Annoyance/problem with a login output?!

AlexZi · 2021-01-12 14:54:51

Hey hey,
Im not a newbie newbie in its literal sense. I did use Arch before, but am a noob on this forum thats sure.. but im not really an expert thats sure read as "I know that I know nothing". I manly use it for purpose specific machines. Now heres an output i get when i login through ssh, mosh or ET. Im not sure if its a system function or a tmux thing.. it started to print this whenever i log in. Im being puzzled by this because i have no idea what would be causing this

How did you install Arch Linux? Which guide did you use?

only machine i run arch on now is this media/tools server running on an archaic asrock ion 330ht-bd htpc. I started playing with it around 2014 and last time i installed one was on this machineand that was somewhere in 2017. So you can bet i dont remember which guide i used. Last years its been more or less configing things installing and uninstalling stuff. As a quick introduction I run on it qbitttorent-nox, radarr, sonarr, jackett, plex, nginx,... and some other tools i need. I use zsh, zgen, tmux and i connect mainly using ET.

What did the maintenance in the last three days include? Why did you not answer ewaller's questions? What have you done to determine what is printing the messages?

AlexZi · 2021-01-12 17:19:18

I thought i answered it clear enough but probably aspi me spoke weirdly. As i tried to answer before i don't remember which guide i used. Obviously back in 2014 i used https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Installation_guide but when i installed this system in 2017 obviously it was already 3 years since i started using arch and did learn a few things and did things a bit like this a bit like that. So reasonably and obviously i don't remember what all i did on install day of this system.

Thats the newbie part.. I never had to fix arch stuff like this by posting to this or any forum, since usually i found answers to people having same issues as i had. This is first time i get something noone seems to have faced before or at least i cant find it. I dont have a clue where to look up for what could be printing this on et/mosh/ssh login. What logs to look up or where to even start searching. I did had problems with programs before where i obviously went to its git repository and solved things with them and reported an issue.

Im not impatient nor was demanding anything. And if i came off like that im sorry it wasnt my intention. I have used forums before just not this one. I know well how the whole volunteering idea of forums works. Im not in a hurry either as said system works its just an annoyance.

And a big sorry for posting that image and breaking all sorts of rules.. as said first time here on forum posting things. So im honestly sorry for all broken rules and will take in all your advices on how i should behave and do things and any help is appreciated not demanded. And let me say sorry if i get anyone angry or sad or feel in any way. Im not doing anything intentionally i try to be ok with everyone yet due to asperger end up sometimes upsetting people or come off unintentionally not the way i intended. Im not here to make enemies but friends.

If anyone has any tip how/where to start look up about this i kindly thank you for sharing.
Now regarding that image should i edit that post and give just the link to image?

loqs · 2021-01-12 18:19:07

What was in the pacman update? /var/log/pacman.log , Are you using OMZSH? The screenshot was of the root user? What shell is that user using? Have you customized that users shell startup?
If you create a new user, are the messages displayed when the new user logs in?

Archlin · 2021-01-12 18:54:07

You did not set this in " /etc/issue" or /etc/issue.net" with a script?
Or perhaps some other script that runs @ start to show this info?

This has to be the worst thread title I have ever seen on these boards, and boy--have I seen some shitty titles. Not only does it mean nothing, it means it in the most bloated way possible.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Co … ow_to_post

Maybe instead of posting apologies for breaking the forum rules, actually edit and fix your posts?

And answer ewaller;s question: what guide did you use to install this OS?

He did in a way in #5

He does not remember after 3-4 years.

Clearly your right about the title and the startpost which made me like ..what..?? erm.. okay.

So AlexZi please edit the title and your post, this is non saying and barely readable.

Being a rolling release distro, Arch really does not like when it gets unmaintanied for such a long time. Various things happened in the meantime, you would have to not only remember what you've done 3 years ago, but carefully read all news aritcles posted on the site primarily to pick up all those manual interventions that were required over time that has passed...
...or you can simply start over, reinstall Arch following the current guide from the wiki and save yourself a lot of time and nerves.

Please check your /etc/bash.bashrc and $HOME/.bashrc, if you use other shell, check the corresponding files, or sudo usermod -s /bin/bash <username>

MuddyArch · 2021-01-18 22:25:18

Do you have some sort of fetch program installed? Like neofetch or archey?

AlexZi · 2021-01-24 19:15:01
