SAM mode overflows the LOG? [fixed in v1.602]

Hi, I'm wondering if I'm overlooking a setting? Is there a way to stop these oft-repeated entries from pushing out other, more useful data? :)

I usually use the SAM mode when listening to SW station, but then this happens... and anything else in the log gets overwritten. :(

I have V1.601 installed.

Thanks!

    I can comment out that message in the next release. It only happens when you push the SAx mode button.

    Note that there are actually two logs. The in-memory log, which is what you see in the admin log tab. And the Linux system log. Only in-memory log messages prefaced with a capital "L" appear in the system log. So even though those messages are annoying as they are obscuring the in-memory log they are not also filling up the system log recorded on the filesystem.

    OK, how do I access the other log? I just want to see how often a few of my friends are logging in and listening. :)

    Thanks! :)

    The answer to that question depends on how much Linux knowledge you have.

    The Linux files /var/log/user.log (and the older compressed logs /var/log/user.log.N.gz) are where the Kiwi messages are logged.

    There are a couple of Makefile targets to make this a bit easier. Bring up the admin page, console tab. Connect and type ml which is a short alias for make log (control-C to stop). To see fewer messages you're supposed to be able to type msl (alias for make slog "short log") . BUT I see this is broken at the moment. So I'll fix in the next release.

    You'll probably want to search the output from that rather than seeing the whole thing, e.g.

    ml | gr leaving

    to search for when users disconnected.

    grep LEAVING upper case

  • jksjks

    Yes. Instead of grep I was thinking of the gr alias which does a grep -i a case-insensitive search (post edited to use gr).

    I have some Linux knowledge. I switched to Mint a few years ago, abandoning Windows almost entirely. I'll have to check this out. :)
