Description

Observation

There is a sporadic failure of approximately 17%, for prepare_data module for yast2_gui test suite. The SUT seems to be freezing with black screen, when select_console is called.

It is notable that by simplifying the module to:

sub run {
    select_console 'root-console';
}
1;

it still displays the same percentage of failure.

The issue is not present in case of using xterm and chvt 6.

sub run {
    x11_start_program('xterm');
    wait_still_screen(5);
    become_root;
    assert_script_run "chvt 6";
    assert_screen "tty6-selected";
}
1;

Unfortunately, the logs are not helpful. When successfully switching to tty6, the autoinst logs contain:
[2020-09-30T17:28:05.896 CEST] [debug] <<< testapi::select_console(testapi_console="root-console")
....
[ 82.601276] systemd[1]: Started Getty on tty6.

Looking at the logs from failed runs, the above phrase is missing.
