I finally just unmerged syslog-ng and reemerged it, but it still had the same error. It also failed on both with both /dev/tty12 and /dev/console. syslog-ng -s /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf;echo $? returns 0 :-( I ran lsusb -vv and I have attached the output (minus flashdrive serial number) Luckily

This also fails (with same error 'Error initalizing configuration, exiting.'). I am having trouble with dbus/hald/dcop, and those are required for XFCE/GNOME/KDE and metalog. I was thinking that metalog instead of syslog-ng would work, but I guess not... nick > Hello Nick, > please start syslog-ng

Hello Nick, I checked your syslog-ng.conf. The only difference is logging to /dev/console instead of /dev/tty12. Just give it a try. I suggest to solve the problems in the order as they appear while booting. So first of all you need an working syslog-ng. I installed version 1.6.8-r1 with default

Sorry, links ate the rest of my message. syslog-ng dies with "bad config file" hotplug usb: Bad USB agent invocation, no action and dmesg still only shows the keypresses (I got rid of Kernel hacking-> debugging). I also added SCSI multi-LUN support, HD support, and general device support. USB mass

Sorry about replying instead of starting again. No worries. Anyway, the only messages in dmesg (I do not know why) are keypress events!?! I used to be informative, but now all it has are keypresses... Turn off event debugging in your kernel. -Joe -- gentoo-ppc-user@gentoo.org mailing list
