Hi Sluggers,

I got into work this morning to discover my /var partition completely
full.  The culprit was /var/log/XFree86.0.log which had grown to over
250MB in five days.  99.99% of the content was these two lines
repeated:

  GetModeLine - scrn: 0 clock: 108000
  GetModeLine - hdsp: 1152 hbeg: 1216 hend: 1344 httl: 1600
                vdsp: 864 vbeg: 865 vend: 868 vttl: 900 flags: 5

Anyone know how to either stop X from creating this file or reduce the
amount of junk it writes to the log?  I'm running XFree86 4.0.1.


Thanks,

John

P.S.  Apologies to the list admins who would have received a heap of
"Message undelivered after 4 hours" messages because of this.  I'll have
myself taken out and shot later.
