@likcoras, alt - http://www.rsyslog.com/discarding-unwanted-messages/ if you want to keep some cron logs but not others
likcoras 2017-03-02 15:46:41
Hm, so right now I have "*.*;auth,authpriv.none -/var/log/syslog"
likcoras 2017-03-02 15:47:11
i change that into the line as shown in the link you sent? cron is already commented.
jsw_ 2017-03-02 15:48:13
You may have just disabled all logging lol
likcoras 2017-03-02 15:49:35
Ehhhhh, that was what it was already, though.
jsw_ 2017-03-02 15:50:06
Oh - nm. I thought you commented out "*.*" to /var/log/syslog
likcoras 2017-03-02 15:51:04
Hm, did not help. I'm looking at the logs with journalctl, does that change anything?
likcoras 2017-03-02 15:51:41
Also I was doing it to rsyslogd.conf, since syslogd.conf was not around. It's pretty much the same, right?
likcoras 2017-03-02 15:54:27
Actually, all I see in /var/log/syslog is "(root) CMD ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly)" and the such, none of the minutely spam.
jsw_ 2017-03-02 15:57:52
In that second link I sent, check out the Config Statements section, you can use that ":msg, contains..." syntax to drop specific messages.
jsw_ 2017-03-02 15:58:03
I use that syntax to route messages to different locations
likcoras 2017-03-02 16:03:24
Hm, I tried ":msg, contains, "/usr/local/rtm/bin/rtm 37" ~"
likcoras 2017-03-02 16:03:50
but it did not work. Now I'm wondering whether cron generates any output on stdout, does it?
jsw_ 2017-03-02 16:04:43
The log messages you're seeing are generated regardless of any output from the script that was executed.
likcoras 2017-03-02 16:05:18
I mean output from the cron process itself
jsw_ 2017-03-02 16:06:00
I'm gunna guess no. Only the jobs would generate output. Cron only generates log messages, like you're seeing.
likcoras 2017-03-02 16:06:47
Not really familiar with cron, but does cron only output to syslog? Nothing on std(in|err)?
jsw_ 2017-03-02 16:07:27
In rsyslog.conf: if $msg contains "/usr/local/rtm/bin/rtm 37" then stop
likcoras 2017-03-02 16:09:12
Hm, still seeing output in journalctl.
likcoras 2017-03-02 16:15:23
Okay, looks like it stopped writing it to /var/log/syslog, but it still appears in the systemd journal.

hey everybloody!
georgia 2017-03-02 16:20:57
who wants to help me fix my sound? SOUNDS fun, eh?
georgia 2017-03-02 16:21:29
But seriously I will do whatever it takes. Using xfce by the way.

1) add yourself to the 'audio' group (log out & in again) 2) unmute and raise channels w/ alsamixer (also try muting some & toggle jack sense if available) 3) or other daemon stopped? 4) speakers on? 5) does "aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Noise.wav" work for root? 6) purge any installed packages to remove ALSA blacklist.

wow, that's some nice automated answer there. I will try!
GBGames 2017-03-02 16:23:21
When I run configure in SDL2_image on Debian Wheezy, and I point it to my custom build libSDL2, configure fails. config.log shows that while it was able to build a conftest, it couldn't run it because the runtime linker couldn't find SDL2.
georgia 2017-03-02 16:23:28
Oh wait, I've already tried all that.
GBGames 2017-03-02 16:23:29
On Ubuntu, I don't see this issue.
georgia 2017-03-02 16:23:48
Literally. Root doesn't have sound.
georgia 2017-03-02 16:23:53
I'm making paste...
GBGames 2017-03-02 16:24:16
I see that config.log on Ubuntu shows that LIBS is populated with the library path, but on Debian Wheezy, config.log's LIBS is empty.
GBGames 2017-03-02 16:25:16
I wonder if I am missing a package or if there was some change in versions between Wheezy and other systems. Any ideas on why I am seeing different behaviors in Wheezy?

georgia: install/run pavucontrol
georgia 2017-03-02 16:27:57
I have done that, thanks missmbob :) I mean, I have pavucontrol. It says my channel is unplugged... wait for pastebin!

hi guys
echosystm 2017-03-02 16:37:09
i get disconnected from ssh whenever i turn my VPN on
echosystm 2017-03-02 16:37:19
any ideas why that might be happening and how i can stop it?
echosystm 2017-03-02 16:37:28
i'm using "openconnect" to connect to some cisco thing
echosystm 2017-03-02 16:37:42
there doesn't seem to be any option to not push routes
echosystm 2017-03-02 16:37:51
i assume the routing table is getting messed up or something
userro 2017-03-02 16:39:15
I think vpn will route all traffic through it so it has to disconnect and reconnect using new route
petemc 2017-03-02 16:43:05
echosystm: that is expected behaviour. some shells like mosh are more tolerant
userro 2017-03-02 16:43:33
what I said is correct?
petemc 2017-03-02 16:43:39
yes
