I’ll change the default console log level to errors only with next release. Please do so with:

```bash
G_CONFIG_INJECT 'kernel.printk = ' 'kernel.printk = 4 4 1 7' /etc/sysctl.d/dietpi.conf
sysctl -w 'kernel.printk = 4 4 1 7'

```

It works, very nice.  
Follow output shouldn’t be a problem though?

Merged with: [v8.13 · MichaIng/DietPi@5c9b771 · GitHub](https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/commit/5c9b771)

Hmm, does this work from console without error?

```bash
sysctl -w kernel.printk='4 4 1 7'

```

I logged in using ssh, typed the first line of your commands, then the second line and it gave this output.  
Then I did a reboot and the display is now completely fine again.

By the way, it also works on the NanoPi with TFT.

Ah the syntax was wrong for console, where no space must be present before and after equal sign. However, the reboot had just the same effect, of course:

```nohighlight
root@VM-Bookworm:~# sysctl -w 'kernel.printk = 4 4 1 7'
sysctl: cannot stat /proc/sys/kernel/printk : No such file or directory
root@VM-Bookworm:~# sysctl -w 'kernel.printk=4 4 1 7'
kernel.printk = 4 4 1 7

```

Thanks for the great support!
