Depending on the setup you might want to warn a system administrator rather than users, but that’s indeed a case to consider. GNOME will warn you, for example, when your battery has been recalled. I have yet to see such important information in the syslog. System about to break down? Users will notice soon enough that it has stopped working. Having a nice warning to tell them the computer is falling into pieces doesn’t help much. Security intrusion warning? In most cases it has to be routed to appropriate people. Home users will ignore such alerts anyway. What is the use case for such a feature? -- .''`. Josselin Mouette : :' : `. `' `-
