Not true: May 16 09:58:56 ibis rsyslogd-2039: Could no open output file '/dev/xconsole' [try http://www.rsyslog.com/e/2039 ] I agree with inode77, for servers, which frequently run sans-X, this should just be commented out. BTW: this is still and issue in lucid (10.4) Similarly, mail should not be logged by default in /var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog -- I'll file this as a separate bug report. -- rsyslog doesn't create /dev/xconsole https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/459730 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
