Help keep logfile clean :-).

[Deron Meranda]

Yes, most of my Fedora 16 syslog "noise" is also coming from dbus.  So
I added rsyslog rules:

:programname, isequal, "dbus" /var/log/dbus.log
& ~
:programname, isequal, "dbus-daemon" /var/log/dbus.log
& ~

which puts them into a different log file.  If you're running on a
smallish solid-state disk though I can see why you might just want to
drop the messages rather than save them.


I also am getting a lot of logfile noise from the gnome login screen.
It looks like for some reason the login screen is running in debug
mode. Why? My normal user gnome sessions don't do that - only the
login screen.
