Therefore subsequent 'dmesg -c' will output nothing unless some kernel activity has take place.
*1 dont use '-c' , "dmesg > boot.txt" , will work fine. *2 su is required for dmesg -c but not for dmesg (witout any options) *3 covered by 1&2 above. Also you can have a look at /var/log/kern.log for all the kernel messages. Run a $ tail -f /var/log/kern.log then watch the messages fly past as you plug your devices .
