Sometimes I use vim in TTY1/2/etc. I am experiencing a problem with this. Messages such as the following keep flooding my terminal:
[ 1050.29303] wlp3s0: failed to set TX queue parameters for AC 2
[ 1059.29340] wlp3s0: failed to set TX queue parameters for AC 2
[ 1020.12309] wlp3s0: failed to set TX queue parameters for AC 2
[ 1029.12899] something_else: some other logging message here
[ 1292.21300] yet_another_thing: hey look a distraction
This can be quite disruptive, especially when I'm using vim to work, and sometimes it even results in me screwing up my text without realizing it. Is there any way to eliminate messages like this, at least when using vim? Using :redraw, editing the messed up lines, etc. don't seem to make the messages disappear.
Your sample of lines looks like kernel messages.
You can turn off output of dmesg messages by typing in terminal
sudo dmesg -D
This is a temporary solution and will work until the system is rebooted. For permanent disabling edit /etc/sysctl.conf file to set kernel.printk parameter.
kernel.printk = 1 4 1 3
I've set the first digit to 1 as the third was 1. Read more about kernel.printk and klogctl(3) {see description of SYSLOG_ACTION_CONSOLE_OFF command}
