Looking for a way to suppress the red warnings in systemd while booting

Yes, my bad. I did speed read the thread and missed points.

I’m not aware of a method to suppress selectively only the error messages.

For thunderbolt check if the hardware is present

lspci -nn | grep -i thunderbolt

lspci | grep -iE “thunderbolt|usb4”

the kernel modules

lsmod | grep thunderbolt

kernel sysfs

ls /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices

retry

boltctl list - a

I don’t think so, this website also don’t show Thunderbolt feature for my Mainboard:

Ohh woow there is Thunderbolt in the logs.

I have to add the info that i have manually disabled USB 4.0 Ports in Bios. (Unsure if this both features twined with each other).

I HATE ASMEDIA. Yes, thunderbolt and USB can come on a type c. They are different things but can use the same port. In fact I seem to have read typec somewhere in the snippet you posted.

Do I remember well : you turned this off in the bios?

Yeah i disabled USB 4.0, because it had a special cooling solution and a additional chipset only for the new USB 4.0 Ports… i wanted to reduce heat and energy, my mainboard gets pretty hot, even in idle PCH is between 58-61° on a fresh boot (related to HWinfo which i use for temp checks under Win10)

Is there a way to finally disable the service under Linux?

Beyond blacklisting thunderbolt I don’t know other methos

I don’t mind, how blacklisting works? I never blacklisted anything under Linux.

Is there something important to know when i blacklist thunderbolt… for example maintenance related maybe? Or anything else?

Well usb4 is the amd equivalent of thunderbolt so you have already disabled it. I had the suspicion the logs call usb4 thunderbolt and disabling it should remove the message. I was wrong but on the other hand now we now that error is also kind of fake if it is there for something non-existent or disabled.

Blacklisting works by creating disable-thunderbolt.conf in

/etc/modprobe.d/

and insert

blacklist thunderbolt

in the conf file you created.

You can blacklist any offending party this way

Save, reboot.

If the blacklist is included in the initramfs — disclaimer: I don’t know — then it might be wise to rebuild the initramfs first before rebooting. :backhand_index_pointing_down:

sudo mkinitcpio -P

Precisely, thank you @Aragorn
