Have should I write in the report for Apple? I want to file a bug report also but not sure what I should write to make it more accurate and less prone to be rejected.

I've made a configuration file for ASL to claim all these messages and then ignore them. Seems to be a reasonable solution until such time as a bug fix is available.

A finer workaround would be to add
? [= Sender WindowServer] ignore in the first line of asl.conf (in the etc directory) and then restart syslog by issuing kill -hup <PID> where PID is the syslog process pid This will filter out only WindowServer messages instead of cutting all the syslog output |
Disregard.

I seem to have stopped the log spam by adding this to my asl.conf in /etc at the top of the file
? [= Sender WindowServer] ignore And then performing the sudo kill -HUP [PID of process] Not sure if that's OK, I tried the other way of creating a file under the asl folder and that did nothing for me. Hope this helps, even if its just towards finding a better answer! |
I changed it a little bit to:
# WindowServer messages about display context (caused by DisplayLink driver) ? [= Sender WindowServer] [= Level Warning] [A= Message _CGXGLDisplayContextForDisplayDevice] claim only Seems to be working and ensures that any other messages from WindowServer are still going in. |
No more messages since I've put this in. Interesting that with all the complaining about this within the forums that DisplayLink was never able to provide this as a solution.
Is it perfect? No. Is it something Apple should fix? yes Does the work-around work? Heck yes. Could DisplayLink provide the work-around? Don't see why not. |
Hi ehendrix,
Sorry for going quiet on this one. Yes we think this is a good workaround, we could apply it at install time. We'd use ? [= Sender WindowServer] [=S Message_CGXGLDisplayContextForDisplayDevice] ignore Unless anyone can spot any issue with the approach? Cheers, Carlo |
