Syslog_on_tty6

Ubuntu

Stopping the screen turning off after a few minutes

On the physical machine itself: setterm -blank 0 setterm -powersave off setterm -powerdown 0

In /etc/syslog.conf: # Pipe all syslog data to TTY6 (ctrl+alt+f6) *.* /dev/tty6

Restart syslogd: /etc/init.d/sysklogd restart

Done! Ctrl+Alt+F6 on the physical machine and you should see syslog output!
