hi,

I also had that problem.
i fixed it adding this to the crontab (executing hourly)
/bin/dmesg -n 1

If anyone has a better solution, I would also apreciate.

I don't know if this is a iptables, syslog or other bug.

Thanks
A.V.

I checked /etc/syslog.conf, but kernal messages was turned off (in fact if I turn kernal logging on I get duplicate messages to the console).  I also did man on iptables, but I do not see any reference to logging to /dev/console
