Is is a known bug.

Bug#1531622 KLogPermitNonKernelFacility - it's legacy parameter which is no longer used. To remove the error, locate and comment out the following line $KLogPermitNonKernelFacility on in the file rsyslog.conf

Bug#830046 If the device /dev/xconsole is not present on you system, you can locate it like this:

daemon.*;mail.*;\
news.err;\
*.=debug;*.=info;\
*.=notice;*.=warn |/dev/xconsol

sudo tail /var/log/messages
