It was thinking it is logged through klogd, and can be suppressed by starting klogd with the e.g. "-c 3" option. Change the bootoption of klogd in: /etc/sysconfig/syslog : > KLOGD_OPTIONS="-x -c 3"

Sounds vaguely like something my google-searches turned, but didn't quite get/understand. I'll look into this again. Thx.

I have the following in my /etc/sysctl.conf file;

# Stop logging to console kernel.printk = 3 4 1 7

The setterm-command I tried yesterday didn't work. I'll give your setting a go.

Make sure you ran it from a VC. It won't work remotely or in an X windows terminal window.

Thx.
