I'm running a stock Debian 1.1.13 system (with the new procps and modules from 1.1.14, because the kernel-source package is corrupted). I *can* get both daemons running eventually but I have to ./etc/init.d/sysklogd restart; ps -ax | grep syslogd; ps -ax | grep klogd (as root, of course) repeatedly until both of them come up. They seem to take turns dying off until finally they stay alive. I cannot for the life of me figure this out. I have tried reinstalling the sysklogd package.
