I don't know what else to do at this point. I'm gonna
take a break and think
about it. I restarted a bunch of services that I
think used to be
running, but I really believe they have nothing
to do with syslogd. As
you stated, man syslogd and see how to start in
debug mode. Strace
starts it and detaches as it should, so nothing
to really see there.
NO! You need to run the logger in debug where it
does no go into BG for
strace to capture everything!
OK.. problem solved. I overlooked an entry I had set up in /etc/syslog.conf that called local8 for the new software I had installed. I removed the logging and stuff is now writing to messages as it should. Gotta figure out now how to enable the local8 logging for the LDM software.
Many thanks to all for your help, and sorry to have caused the problem myself. Should have looked closer at the syslog.conf. Didn't remember making the change.

Now this is a good example of having that one software that Alex suggested (dconf) so you do not run into this problem again.... :-)
