Thanks for pointing that out Steve. I moved an existing /home/ mount
into the Jaunty environment. Now you've jogged my memory I think I do
recall that with the default Jaunty user profile I saw a bunch of log-
file warnings too. Now I only see one for /var/log/acpid.
The reason for it is that on package gnome-utils the gnome-log-viewer
code has the defaults hard-coded in. logview/logview-prefs.c:
static char *default_logfiles[] = {
"/var/log/sys.log",
#ifndef ON_SUN_OS
"/var/log/messages",
"/var/log/secure",
"/var/log/maillog",
"/var/log/cron",
"/var/log/Xorg.0.log",
"/var/log/XFree86.0.log",
"/var/log/auth.log",
"/var/log/cups/error_log",
#else
so what we need is a simple patch to alter the defaults
