Quote from Debian refrence at Debian web server: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/reference/ch-tips In order to quiet on-screen error messages, first place to check is /etc/init.d/klogd. Set KLOGD="-c 4" in this script and run /etc/init.d/klogd restart. -- ~\^o^/~~~ ~\^.^/~~~ ~\^*^/~~~ ~\^_^/~~~ ~\^+^/~~~ ~\^:^/~~~ ~\^v^/~~~ +++++ Osamu Aoki @ Cupertino CA USA See "User's Guide": http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/users-guide/ See "Debian reference": http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/reference/ "Debian reference" Project at: http://qref.sf.net I welcome your constructive criticisms and corrections. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
