Thank you for the information. I downloaded ksystemlog and it is a nice
graphical application for viewing many different logs.

I think all the computers I work with now are all intel based. I don't
run any servers and just support mine and my extended family's computers
of whom I have convinced to run GNU/Linux on. My desktop computer uses
HDMI to connect to the monitor and I use HDMI on my laptop when using it
for presentations.

Now have something more to look at to see what is going on "behind the
curtain" even though I am sure I will not understand most of it and have
to use web searches for messages that look interesting.

Thank you,

Eric
