Thank you, hggdh2, for having a look. There isn't so much to say in terms of details. I ran the live CD and tail'd syslog. When I saw no updates I stopped the tail and restarted it (several times). Sure enough, there were new lines (not least because I had replugged USB devices) which were shown now. But again, no updates after that.
Maybe this only affects the live CD. I don't know. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1278940 Title: "tail -f" no longer updates in 14.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/coreutils/+bug/1278940/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
