Hello Max,

Thats what I thought as well but there is no debug log in /var/log and  
no messages in /var/log/. When I do dmesg|less the dmesg log is  
truncated and I miss most of it. I wanted to put a kernel option on  
the boot line, log_buf_len=262144, but there was no way to do that as  
far as I could see.

I could be missing something but I am not sure what.

Thanks for the reply,

Jon
