dmesg output is also logged to /var/log/messages. If you want to save output
from a command to a file, type "> filename" after the command, eg:

  dmesg > kernel.log

And if it's just some stuff on screen you wish to copy into a file, just select
the text you want to save with the mouse, open up an ascii-editor, and click the
middle mouse button (or both right and left buttons simultaneously if it's a
*yuch* 2 button mouse)
