Am I the only person who's sick and tired of all manner of error messages that are being splattered across all open console logins just because some programmer wants to do that?
Example: Is it really necessary for ordinary users to get the following from cdparanoia:
cdparanoia: Using deprecated /dev/sg mechanism instead of SG_IO on the actual device will also suggest you mig
For most kernel errors, one can edit /etc/sysconfig/syslog and in the klog section
# Options to syslogd # -m 0 disables 'MARK' messages. # -r enables logging from remote machines # -x disables DNS lookups on messages recieved with -r # See syslogd(8) for more details SYSLOGD_OPTIONS="-m 0" # Options to klogd # -2 prints all kernel oops messages twice; once for klogd to decode, and # once for processing with 'ksymoops' # -x disables all klogd processing of oops messages entirely # See klogd(8) for more details KLOGD_OPTIONS="-x -c 1"
That should quiet out a lot of cruft that kernel sometimes prints.
