Eu uso o 14.04 e não tenho syslog.
Sou um usuário novo do Linux, sendo usuário do Windows há anos. Quando eu tento rastrear o syslog e é isso que acontece:
henrique@henrique:/var/log$ tail -f /var/log/syslog
tail: couldn't open “/var/log/syslog” for reading: File or directory not found
Isso foi algum erro na instalação do Ubuntu? É assim que eu consigo "instalar" o syslog?
