          I've noticed this before when dist-upgrading that output appears such as:
 
 
"nbound IN=lan0 OUT=MAC=00:11 2f:08:5d".........etc etc for several lines.
 
 
during an upgrade.  It appears also with no input on my part.  It doesn't seem to interfere, but it is rather disconcerting & wonder if others have experienced this.  I don't know why this happens.  I have a cable connection.  Some network info is pasted:

          dmesg -n 3 should get rid of iptables output floding the console; if not, add klogd -c 4 in /etc/init.d/klogd
 
 
man dmesg and klogd for more details |

          ice:  It's getting a little weirder;  I entered dmesg -n 3 as root, did a Ctrl-Alt-F1, logged in as root & did apt-get update which stalled at [waiting for headers] more than I have seen before.  Then at the end I saw:
 
 
"E: unable to parse package file /etc/apt/preferences"  WTF?  Never saw THAT before on a standard update.  Oh well.  So then I did an init 5 & used Konsole to do a apt-get update & received the following error messages:
 
 
Err http://ftp.de.debian.org unstable Release.gpg
 
  Could not connect to ftp.de.debian.org:80 (141.76.2.4), connection timed out
 
 
Failed to fetch http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/dists/u ... elease.gpg  Could not connect to ftp.de.debian.org:80 (141.76.2.4), connection timed out
 
Reading package lists... Done
 
E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
 
 
Things seem to be getting worse, eh?  I looked for more details as you suggested.  Man dmesg (I detest poorly written & most all man pages) doesn't tell me what the -n 3 string option means.  I catted the /etc/init.d/klogd file, & it unfortunately was gobbley-gook to me, as I don't know how to add the "klogd -c 4" parameter in the file, or the proper syntax to use, but I DO appreciate your advise, believe me.
 
 
I'll try logging out & back in now. |

          I think it's just the new apt doing its job.
