Hi

I am still a TC newbie. For various reasons I have a persistent home, opt, tce.

Starting with the default desktop I had previously converted to xorg but on this build, I attempted to go from default wm, TC v2.10 to LXDE with a kernel cheatcode "noicons" to remove the wbar.

For me, the cheatcode did not work, possible reason not yet using X server.....and I have no .xsession error file.

Ok so I decided to enable the syslog cheatcode......I got a crash initially until I installed the package
inetutils.

I am now back into TC, and am reading my /var/log/messages

I have mutiple lines that are similar to the first one that reads

Apr 25 00:29:57 (none) local2.notice sudo:       tc : TTY=unknown ; PWD=/mnt/sda2/tce/optional ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/bin/mkdir -p /tmp/tcloop/expat2

These lines start at line 444 and have gone as far as 592 and may grow.

Questions

Are these any concern?

Q (2) How can I stop them?

If I can't stop them, it is more likely I may not enable syslog as a cheatcode.

Here is a link to the full log if interested

thanks

PS my current grub menu is in a code box

Code: [Select]
default 0
timeout 3

title TC
kernel /boot/bzImage max_loop=255 restore=sda2
initrd /boot/tinycore.gz

title MBR
root (hd0)
chainloader +1

The original had home=sda2 tce=sda2 opt=sda2 but from reading the forums, I only needed that once and TC autoscans.

PS (2) I use a E for Edit grub menu to enable the sylog cheatcode until I know how to fix those pesky messages

It looks like it's just `sudo` doing its thing.  There may be an option in there to change it.
