Default good old syslog-ng issue

hi folks!

my /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf has the folowing directive under the source section:

Code:
file("/dev/klog")
after making syslog-ng start

i get the following:

Code:
# syslog-ng start
Changing permissions on special file /dev/klog
Error opening file /dev/klog for reading (Device busy)
Error initializing configuration, exiting.
#
but with this directive commented it starts ok.

i googled just to find out that this is the common issue, but have found no sollution so far.

any ideas?
