File /var/log/Xorg.0.log gets filled with the following two debug messages over and over again: (II) RADEON(0): radeon_dri2_flip_event_handler:981 fevent[0x17082c0] width 1280 pitch 5120 (/4 1280) (II) RADEON(0): radeon_dri2_schedule_flip:619 fevent[0x27c7b80] As these messages do not appear to be reporting any error or even have any informative value for the end user, I qualify them as debug messages. Or is there anything bad about these messages? I get about 3650 such messages per day, for a total of 680 kB. You may consider this a cosmetic issue, but I still would like to see it fixed, for two reasons: * Valuable messages are very hard to spot in the log file because it is flooded by these debug messages. * I have /var/log on a SSD. Such drives do not like repeated writes. I do not want to see the lifetime of my drive shorten by useless log messages.
