This question already has an answer here:



  • ^@ spam in tty (but seems to be system-wide)

    1 answer



I cannot login to my Arch Linux machine because the tty keeps getting filled with ^@ characters, and therefore I cannot enter my username or password. What's wrong?

          Can you ssh into your machine? If you can, try entering



          sudo dmesg -n 1



          That will block messages from the kernel. Might not help but worth a try

            Some protocols use the NUL for keep alives. You could try to set a high keep alive to circumvent this behaviour. E.g. in iTerm2 there is an option called "When idle, sent Ascii code".




            0 (null, NUL, , ^@), originally intended to be an ignored character, but now used by many programming languages to mark the end of a string.
