GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 577663
NetworkManager floods syslog.
Last modified: 2009-04-08 22:13:44 UTC
Please describe the problem: While it is entirely possible to disable log spew from NetworkManager by re-configuring syslog, its treatment of the log levels is completely arbitrary. I prepared a patch to move most of the info messages to debug level, and left (or added) only a few, signaling daemon startup and shutdown, as well as up and down events on the network and vpn devices. Steps to reproduce: Actual results: Expected results: Does this happen every time? Other information:
Created attachment 131876 [details] [review] Proposed patch to clean up debug messages from default syslog.
Going to dupe to 564986 since that's the real fix; we do need better log levels, or better yet we need 'zones' plus log levels, so you could for example turn on wifi debugging but leave eth debugging off. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 564986 ***
