for all unhappy people who reinstalled their loved operating system only because of this bug:
there exists a very simple temporal solution!!! 1) stop rsyslog service (#service rsyslog stop) 2) (backup and) delete all huge files in /var/log 3) copy the file 10-temperature.conf attached in the post #57 4) start rsyslog service (#service rsyslog start) what is going on: The effect of this bug is so serious that there is no time to wait for a fix in the kernel. But it is easy to configure the syslog to discard all unwanted messages, i.e. messages containing "Temperature/speed normal" and "Temperature above threshold". This is what the file 10-temperature.conf is all about. When the fix will be released, just delete this file and reload the service rsyslog. I am using this fix few weeks and I haven't noticed another unwanted messages. -- /var/log fills up with "all normal" messages @ about 575/sec fill up the available space https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/453444 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
