Hi, I am a fledgeling Xen developer. I use ''xm dmesg | tail'' pretty often to check the console output generated by my code. Instead of using this command often, I''d like to have something equivalent to a tailf, where the dmesg output is continuously printed to a console window. Is there any file that this output is written to? Thanks, Daniel. -- Daniel J Mathew Research Associate Indian Institute of Technology Delhi www.cse.iitd.ernet.in/~mathew <http://www.cse.iitd.ernet.in/%7Emathew> _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel

There''s an option to xenconsoled to make it log xen output to a file. Look at the --log= option. K.
