Hi Adam, I know this is not a direct solution for your problem, but you might consider using syslog-ng. This gives you a lot more control over the logging, and you can easily filter out hddtemp and log that to a seperate file or even /dev/null. The default syslog-ng install has a config file to simulate syslog's behaviour, so you shouldn't even notice any difference. Then you can edit the config file and filter out hddtemp's logging.
