Speaking of problems with console-log, has anyone else had trouble with it 
when syslog restarts (e.g. when logs are rotated)? I found that after a 
syslog restart, no new messages would appear in the less concerned. Adding 
the following line to /etc/init.d/sysklogd just before the exit 0 at the end
seems to have fixed it:

/etc/init.d/console-log $1 >/dev/null 2>&1
