Error messages to console

[Bill Moran]

Check your syslog.conf (usually in /etc)
It will generally control where certain messages go to.  Look for lines
that log to the console, or lines that log to "root".  These will show up
on your console if you're logged in as root.  Tweak them to stop the
console messges.
