it seems it is necessary now to name the whole path /bin/dmesg i noticed that yesterday with systemctl, which is: /bin/systemctl
It is just: # dmesg > file_of_your_choice Then look at 'file_of_your_choice' with editor of your choice and you will see all output of program 'dmesg' which is kernel messages. Doing: cat dmesg > some_file means that program 'cat' will look for file named 'dmesg' and as it is not present it will output nothing to 'some_file'. When you add '/bin/dmesg' program 'cat' will find file to show, but that will be program 'dmesg' itself, so you will (most likely) have copy of 'dmesg' plus some garbage in the file 'some_file'. In any case that is not what you want to see :) -- Regards, Rajko. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
