Since the dmesg buffer exists in kernel space, a kernel build is required to change its size. If recollection serves, the setting is named CONFIG_LOG_BUF_SHIFT and the value is a power of 2. For example CONFIG_LOG_BUF_SHIFT=18 sets the buffer size to 262144 bytes. HTH, David -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
