Description Michael Stather 2006-03-11 14:06:32 UTC 
This is not really a high priority thing, but sometimes 2 lines of the startup messages are printed in one line, while every messages should have its own line.
Comment 1 Michael Gross 2006-03-13 11:00:10 UTC 
Sometimes? Which scripts/lines are affected?
Comment 2 Michael Stather 2006-03-13 17:33:54 UTC 
This changes randomly.
AFAIK this is not system dependant, so perhaps you can reproduce it.
Comment 3 Michael Gross 2006-03-14 14:31:06 UTC 
I haven't noticed it so far, so we'll need a specific example here. Are you sure everything is in order with your hardware? I suppose you're using a framebuffer. Does it also happen if you switch the fb off?
Comment 4 Michael Stather 2006-03-14 16:49:54 UTC 
As I said before this doesn´t happen often and also on more of my systems. It´s not a really major bug and since it´s difficult to track down (happens about on every tenth boot), if you can´t reproduce then it´s probably the best to leave until you can (or forever *g).
Comment 5 Michael Gross 2006-03-15 15:56:39 UTC 
I haven't noticed it on my machine. Do these machines you noticed this on have sth. important in common, like the gfx-card?
Comment 6 Michael Stather 2006-03-15 18:25:14 UTC 
No, not at all :(
One is an old notebook and the other a really new Althlon64
Comment 7 Michael Gross 2006-03-16 15:15:38 UTC 
You still should try if this also happens without the framebuffer, I suspect the problem there.
Comment 8 Michael Gross 2006-03-20 12:37:54 UTC 
Closing this bug until you can provide more information about how to reproduce this.
