Why do I get daemon Console output if mounting devtmpfs but goes to log if not?
by dfatlq from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4RBW7)
Hi,
I have a weird issue which I diagnosed all the way back to simply being that if I mount `devtmpfs` then launch ACPID daemon, i get console output, if I don't mount `devtmpfs`, the ACPI daemon output goes to the log. I also get some `rpcbind` messages when `reboot` is issued, but I think it's the same thing (normally logs instead of output to screen).
apcid: starting up with netlink and the input layer
apcid: 1 rule loaded
apcid: waiting for events: event logging is off
Does anyone have any ideas why? I can still use `udev` to create and load all my devices either way (mounting devtmpfs or not). I tried setting up /etc/sysctl.conf to use kernel.printk = 3 4 1 3 (the default without it was 3 4 1 7), but that made no difference.
TIA
