6/28    How can I get my printer driver (bsd) to be more quiet?  syslog is
        logging stuff like "/kernel: T 80 sts 80" every centisecond.  On a
        related matter, how does one discover the severity/origin of a given
        message in the log?
        \_ man syslog -ali
           \_ [ obMotdStupidity purged ]
          \_ I removed all syslog.conf references to /dev/console and I'm
             still getting inundated w/ the same messages.
             \_ reboot
                \_ don't reboot, kill -HUP syslogd.  But that's probably not
                   what you want to do anyway--you want to direct lpr.*
                   to somewhere intelligent.  -tom
