did you reinstall rsyslog? did you purge the configs for it (back them up if needed)? when i remove a package i have been having troubles with i often purge it instead of uninstalling it. you may need to reboot after reinstalling systemd and/or rsyslog or any other parts. see my other note about what your /var/log/journal directory should look like if you have that set up right for permissions. back up the files if you want to keep the old ones. i'm not sure the subdirectory in /var/log/journal will be recreated or not but i think it will if it isn't there, if it is there and empty the journald service should set up a new one. note this depends upon what setting you've got in your config files for systemd. i'm not sure if you've altered systemd configuration files or not. note that reinstalling without purging will not necessarily reset your configuration files. rsyslog files should show up in /var/log or where ever you put them. these are things i can think of trying. sorry i've gotta get going and won't be able to help more until later tonight. hope you get it figured out before then. :) songbird
