If I look in my /var/log/dmesg.log it is empty (it actually says in the log nothing has been logged yet) how\where do I check that logging to dmesg is switched on please.
I am running Debian testing if that makes a difference?

/var/log/dmesg empty
Re: /var/log/dmesg empty
Are you just looking for kernel messages from the current boot or also from previous boots? You can get the kernel messages from the current boot with:
or
For kernel messages of previous boots you have to enable persistent logging. Just set in /etc/systemd/journald.conf the value of Storage to "persistent" and debian will persist the log messages in /var/log/journal. You can view them with journalctl.
Code: Select all
journalctl -k
Code: Select all
dmesg
Have a nice day!
Re: /var/log/dmesg empty
Thanks, I have uncommented (it was hashed out) and changed storage to persistent so let see what it produces, if I am not seeing what I want I will pop back.
Thanks
