In the general sense my intention was to learn and not lazy-web the
list. But you are right, attached is /var/log/messages.

My 2 cents: read and understand log messages when you are in trouble,
if system is working well, you don't need understand these logs.

google and source code are your friend if you want to understand a
message which you don't understand
