/etc/syslog.conf can be edited to change syslogs behaviour. Also the
sysctl.conf kernel.printk values can be changed to set klogd's
verbosity.

On my firewall I use:
in /etc/sysctl.conf:
kernel.printk = 4 4 1 7
so only warnings or worse are logged to the console

in /etc/syslog.conf:
kern.warning				/dev/console
kern.notice				/dev/tty9
*.debug					/dev/tty10
(not sure if the first line is redundant, check for yourself)
