Yes, "dmesg -n" sounds the most straightforward. There are multiple ways
of course, for some reason I've always used /proc/sys/kernel/printk for
this (which has the extra "feature" that it accepts values greater than
8 too :-)
Why not mention all the various methods, dmesg -n,
/proc/sys/kernel/printk, SysRq, ignore_loglevel ??
