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!
Comments
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 formake log
(control-C to stop). To see fewer messages you're supposed to be able to typemsl
(alias formake 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
Yes. Instead of
grep
I was thinking of thegr
alias which does agrep -i
a case-insensitive search (post edited to usegr
).I have some Linux knowledge. I switched to Mint a few years ago, abandoning Windows almost entirely. I'll have to check this out. :)
