Node-launchpad TUI

… the service management is not really good to be honest … same issue as with the node-manager too … because my home network can’t stand many nodes (and i’m running some on a rpi alreay) i first started 5 nodes with the launchpad … and then reduced resource allocation for it to stop all but 1 service …

(this is how it looked after stopping the services … and how it looks after a reboot next day too)
as you can see this doesn’t reflect the current state of the system:

there are clearly all 5 nodes running on my machine after a reboot … that activated autostart of all services by default is really a dangerous thing imho and a huge anti-feature …
(on my systems with node-manager on it i have a script that automatically deactivates it after adding a new node to make sure i don’t end up with a fully blocked system [again] …)

so after having done such a stunt the pc will be unusable forever (from this user) until a root manages to remove all the user services …

…this TUI has the potential of ruining perfectly fine linux installations and should come with a huge warning sign …
…i’ll try to get rid of those services now on my system …

oh well - getting rid of everything was easy once i knew what to look for :slight_smile:
