On my vpn connection network manager writes in /var/log/messages.log these error messages for every packet:

pptp[16497]: nm-pptp-service-16489 log[decaps_gre:pptp_gre.c:414]: buffering packet 37 (expecting 36, lost or reordered)
pptp[16497]: nm-pptp-service-16489 log[decaps_gre:pptp_gre.c:414]: buffering packet 182 (expecting 180, lost or reordered)
pptp[16497]: nm-pptp-service-16489 log[decaps_gre:pptp_gre.c:414]: buffering packet 183 (expecting 180, lost or reordered)

but connettion works fine. Root partition owerflow coming for ~2 days.

This message is part of the pptp *default* log level; so I've added some code that quiets most logging, but allows for debug logging when required.
