Logcheck devel - Sep 2007 - Bug#443171: rules to ignore acpid messages

here are the rules to ignore acpid messages:

^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ acpid: received event
^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ acpid: notifying client
^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ acpid: executing action
^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ acpid: action exited with status 0$
^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ acpid: completed event
^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ acpid: client connected from
^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ acpid: [0-9]+ client rule.* loaded$

They ignore pretty everything, unless there is an error. 

The first line ignores all kind events (battery, lid, power, hkey). Or
are there acpi event that should trigger logcheck?

cheers,
Hp.

Thanks! In general, I don't think logcheck should let any acpid
messages pass, so this should be okay.

I am missing information about where these filters go, but I'll
assume ignore.d.server/acpid.

Also, you might want to have a look at
  http://wiki.logcheck.org/index.cgi/RuleSubmission

for future submissions. Specifically, we don't really want rules
that don't cover the whole line and do not end with $. And in
between, the filter should be as specific as possible.

Do you want to try to fix the rules up? If not, then please send me
the log messages that weren't filtered and I'll update them.
