Problem
Somewhere in the past, I saw a linux box with real time dmesg terminal - i.e. you push Ctrl-Alt-F12 and a terminal with with fresh dmesg output pops out. How can I reproduce such effect? I know about the trick with watch command, but that's not the solution I'm thinking about.

Fix for: Terminal with real time dmesg output
Low Risk
You're going to need to edit your /etc/syslog.conf. Adding a line like: Would output all kernel info to that tty. You'll need to figure out which tty is assigned to contol-alt-f12. There are many more examples in man syslog.conf.
