They come from the gdm gnome-session, which is always started with debugging enabled regardless of the gdm debug settings. This was reported and fixed upstream as: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=672801 Frederic Crozat told me that openSUSE 12.2 suffers from the same problem. It would be great if the fix could be backported to both 12.1 and 12.2. Too many messages logged by default generate unnecessary I/O, use unnecessary disk space, and make it hard to see the important messages. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
