trapping kernel messages



Hi Debian!

I get lots of these:

Nov 13 11:30:01 debian kernel: nasd: page allocation failure. order:4, mode:0x21 Nov 13 11:30:01 debian kernel: [__alloc_pages+449/848] __alloc_pages+0x1c1/0x350 Nov 13 11:30:01 debian kernel: [__get_free_pages+31/64] __get_free_pages+0x1f/0x40
<snip>

They are page allocation failures related to sound. Don't seem to hurt. Happens when nasd plays my chimes every half hour.

Kernel 2.6.9. Went away for a while, now is back. Was noted in the KML, patch did not work.

The point is these messages have 20 lines and show up every half hour. They drown syslog. I want to reduce them to a simple "page allocation failure". Enough is enough.

Now the manpage for sysklogd says:

Sysklogd provides two system utilities which provide support for system logging and kernel message trapping.

But I fail to find where or how I can trap these 20 liners and reduce them to one line.

Anybody?

Hugo
