2026-07-16T12:09:30.085110-03:00 krasiwati pulseaudio[3062]: [alsa-sink-USB Audio] alsa-sink.c: Most likely this is a bug in the ALSA driver 'snd_usb_audio'. Please report this issue to the ALSA developers.

update-notifier-crash on Ubuntu 24.04 wrote 1 Tbyte of garbage to syslog before I noticed and stopped it. I noticed because it filled the disk.Unbelievably annoying behavior. I guess that'll teach me to ignore an update notification rather than figuring out how to disable it forever.
For real, many people asked me for their smaller and mid-sized environments, how to handle remote syslog of their nodes. I had some ideas (some of you may have already found my Rust interpretation of this) but I think having this included in #PegaProx as a centralized management interface makes more sense.
So, PegaProx comes with an own syslog server (ipv4/ipv6, udp/tcp, encrypted/unencrypted support) and is wired to the interface within the resources tab. Providing a quick overview of all your logs and filter options. The next thing is wiring it to the notification system of PegaProx, allowing automated alerting. Might be nice to quickly identify when the quorum got lost - all built-in into PegaProx!
