@Nick Rundy, I guess the solution would be a preferences window of some sort that allows you to select which ones you don't want to see. But since this logs disappearing behaviour was NOT intentional and only cropped up in oneiric while being fine in the rest it is still a bug. What you are

Yes Sebastien, but if nobody is assigned to it, it means not much is going on about it correct? Please suggest an alternative work around in the meantime? e.g. the links to the logs? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu.
