FORTUNATELY, wheezy deprecates the crap from hell that is sysklogd (syslogd
+ klogd), and offers rsyslog as the default replacement (used on new
installs), and other alternatives such as syslog-ng.
rsyslog takes care of reading the kernel logs by itself (imklog module,
enabled by default in Debian. See /etc/rsyslog.conf).
You can set the kernel verbosity level using "dmesg -n <level>" as root.
rsyslog in Squeeze didn't allow you to set it directly, maybe the version in
wheezy does. Check manpage rsyslog.conf(5).
Anyway, adding dmesg -n 4 to /etc/default/rsyslog is a hack that should work
just fine, since it is sourced as a shell script by the rsyslog initscript.
