If you are using iptables, then you probably have a rule like this one:
# iptables -L [SKIP] LOG all -- anywhere anywhere LOG level warning [SKIP]
Removing the "LOG" rule should resolve your problem. I'm using iptables and I guess ipchains works similar.

No I don't have that LOG line.
I find that I can enter dmesg -n1 and that seems to stop it but I can't do that until after I'm logged on and of course trash is being written to the screen at random times during the "boot" process and if I don't stay near by and log on, when I come back the screen is full of "garbage." Once I enter dmesg -n1 things seem normal or if I immediately start WindowMaker the problem clears. There I can get a command line and do whatever without that random data being printed to the screen.
It's interesting to note that the data written to the screen doesn't interfere with operation, only my mental processes, if I ignore the screen and simply type commands they are executed normally despite the mixed display.
