I wondered this myself, and have no explanation. I suppose - and this is a guess - the lshal dev chose to directly manipulate streams when lshal is invoked with --monitor (-m) to prevent lshal itself from disturbing the devices it is monitoring.... > i cant capture it unless its piped to a file since my computer > shuts down when i press powerbutton. help appreciated..thanks Try using script: $ script halout $ lshal -m Then, whatever happens, halout should contain what you are looking for (probably best not to write the script file - halout - to /tmp, it could cleaned away reboot). For best results, you might try script -f -c "lshal -m" halout That puts the whole thing on one line, and the -f option ensures that output is flushed to disk as it is produced. -- Logout screen appears twice [Feisty] https://launchpad.net/bugs/81227 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
