[Solved]Console information display problem

Hi, I have a problem here, and have searched around but no relative thread yet. Here it is:

Normally, when I insert a USB flash drive to computer, all the usb discovery information will go to /var/log/message.log file. But one day suddenly, this kind of information also displayed on the console. My question is: how do I make the information only go to the /var/log/message.log file, not on the console?

Thanks in advance.

Re: [Solved]Console information display problem

Maybe it's related to the VERBOSE parameter?

Did you add 'quiet' to the kernel boot line?

Thanks karol.

I will read the link.

But for the kernel boot line, I use the default setting, no "quiet" parameter, and previously it went all well, no such problem.

This got changed with initscripts 2011.07.3-1 which went to the repos on 2011-07-30 - two days ago.
If you have them installed, this might be it.

Thanks karol.

I have read the link you provided, and tried adding the kernel "quiet" parameter, now it goes all right like before, just like you said.

For helping those having same problem and wanting the display information disabled on the console, I'm happy to say just adding "loglevel=quiet" (no quoting) to the kernel line in grub's menu.lst file.
