I'm having all syslog messages on my console, this is rather annoying, it happend after I switched to single user mode, in wich I killed syslog and a few other programs so I could umount and fsck /var/, after switching back to normal mode, syslog stopped working, I restarted it but it didn't help, rebooting the machine could fix it (I had the same problem last month) but rebooting isn't possible.
I hope that someone can help.
