You'd possibly find that /var/log/everything/current is the Gentoo |
| 21 |
logging location I have a symlink from there to /var/log/messages |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
There is a backup of dmesg stored in /var/log/dmesg |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
I use a combination of dmesg | less and /var/log/everything/current |
| 26 |
and lsmod for module testing (if they load and don't load) |
