Thanks for the pointer to dmesg, but I did used to get all these in /var/log/kern.log e.g. the following is from kern.log before the upgrade to hamm.

I checked /etc/syslog.conf which has the line: kern.* -/var/log/kern.log This hasn't changed since bo. I also checked /etc/rc?.d to see if syslogd or klogd were being started any differently, but I can't see any difference.
