Well, I've done some more digging on this problem and, though I have found out some things, I am still no closer to solving the problem than before.
1) The huge amount of lines in /var/log/messages seems to be unrelated to why I'm getting an fsck every time I boot. There are hundreds of lines in there that look like this one --

This is firewall logging. Why it is in /var/log/messages is a mystery, because (at least in 9.3) the syslog-ng config file is written to write all firewall log entries to a separate file. Possibly you are still using the old syslog, which is pretty brain dead and dumps everything from the kernel into /var/log/messages. If so, I suggest you dump it and install syslog-ng instead. -- The best way to accelerate a computer running Windows is at 9.81 m/s² -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
