Thanks Andrey, the issue with eterm was that was the shell tool I was 
using as because of kde4/kde3 migration issues konsole was not in the 
kde3 menus, and eterm didn't appear to provide copy facilities.
I wasn't aware that these messages were logged to this file, which also 
raises another question I have been pondering. Why do we have so many 
log files, why do we not use just syslog?

regards,
Steve
