I'm running Trusty on a KVM Virtual Machine, installed from CD, using the "Minimul Virtual Machine" flavor. Come on guys, 6 years and still no fix for this issue? WTF???!!! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to rsyslog in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/459730 Title: rsyslog doesn't create /dev/xconsole Status in One Hundred Papercuts: Triaged Status in rsyslog package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: rsyslog Looks like this was missed in the move to upstart. This function was called in init.d/rsyslog start: create_xconsole() { if [ ! -e /dev/xconsole ] then mknod -m 640 /dev/xconsole p chown root:adm /dev/xconsole [ -x /sbin/restorecon ] && /sbin/restorecon /dev/xconsole fi } I can't find any reference to it now. If this is old school then it should be re moved from the config. rsyslog: Installed: 4.2.0-2ubuntu5 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/459730/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
