Greetings, my first post here. I have been compiling my own kernels for
a year now with no problems, but now I am getting a strange problem with
2.6.13.rc3 with mm patches
:-
information about the data going thru my eth1, which is a USB connection
to my Motorola internet cable modem, seems to be "leaking" into the
linux console display - e.g. if I am doing something in the native
console (i.e. not under X) , at random large chunks of stuff like this :-
Aug 27 20:02:43 localhost kernel: Inbound IN=eth1 OUT=
MAC=00:12:c9:4c:17:65:00:05:9a:d5:88:70:08:00 SRC=61.47.147.92
DST=211.30.153.231 LEN=48 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=107 ID=58134 DF
PROTO=TCP SPT=3015 DPT=4899 WINDOW=64800 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0
gets displayed on the console for a few seconds.
Now - this seems to be exactly the stuff that should only go to syslog,
isn't it ?
Also, I find that the command dmesg displays similar rubbish - I
understand it should display bootup info about loaded modules ?
I realize this is a beta kernel, but I'd really like to understand more
about what's going on internally when things go wrong.
thanks
Rod
