Some hosts might not use /var/log/kern.log for kernel messages, so if we can't find a match there, try dmesg next. If no matches are found, don't let the shell terminate the script, so that we have a chance to try dmesg and actually echo "no match!" if no matches are found: set +e before the setname loop.
