Hello, There are several ways to suppress this information in /var/log/messages: 1. Turn kernel driver debugging off: Device Drivers -> Generic Driver Options -> Driver Core verbose debug messages Or, if you can't turn that off, 2. Reconfigure syslogd to ignore the messages. This depends on which distro you are using. Look under /etc/syslog.conf, /etc/syslog.d/*, or man syslog. The messages are printed at KERN_DEBUG level, and typically syslogd ignores these messages. Or, if you can't turn it off, 3. Reconfigure syslogd to send KERN_DEBUG messages to a separate log file. man syslog.
