Hi guys,<br>
<br>
My age or my decrepitude is catching up with me.<br>
<br>
For the LIFE of me, I cannot remember a command.<br>
<br>
You'd be able to plug something into the computer, enter this command<br>
and it'd show you all manner of kernel messages and other interesting<br>
info ....<br>
<br>
It wasn't a tail of /var/log/messages<br>
<br>
Please help an absentminded twit.<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>
<br>
