Re: [SOLVED]how to change log levels

Use the "loglevel" kernel parameter.

How about the following from the Broadcom article: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Br … e_messages

Re: [SOLVED]how to change log levels

OK I understand that it's a kernel parameter but I still don't understand how apply it. What would I need to do to use a kernel
parameter. I hear it has something to do with the boot loader mine is grub but beyond that I am not sure what to do

For Grub, in /etc/default/grub you would add something like loglevel=3 to the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT parameter. Then regenerate the menufile with the grub-mkconfig command

My suggestion in the Broadcom page that I linked to should achieve the same thing as well.

Re: [SOLVED]how to change log levels

Thanks it worked. Creating /etc/sysctl.d/printk.conf worked
