Silencing gconfd spam in syslogd...
For some reasons, many packages that use GTK+ also pick up gconf as a dependency.
Now.. that might not be a bad thing, but it sure is annoying! When gconfd starts/stops.. it pollutes /var/log/messages, so very rude. To disable it, append the following to the top of /etc/syslog.conf. Code:
# It's quite annoying... !!gconfd *.info /dev/null !* $ sudo kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslog.pid` I honestly don't know if there is a better way of doing this.. I wasn't able to find a strait answer. Hope it helps someone else that hates log spammers. |
