Have found the following message log sequence below which also co-incides with a prompt name change in root terminal session (attached file extract below).
some questions - why does linux-b9ze kernel change to mshome kernel ? SIGHUP means what? why does avahi-daemon withdraw something?
They are both caused by you allowing dhcp to change the host name. Never do that. Go into yast and prevent dhcp from changing the host name upon connection.
Sighup ("signal heads up" is how I remember this) is sent to the logger that the name of the host has changed. Logging then resumes using the new name. SUGHUP usually just tells a daemon (the logger in this case) to perform some portion (or all) of its initialization routines. -- ----------JSA--------- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
