After some time since turning geektool enabled mode on, the programs stops doing the cat system.log >.

I have jaguar 10.2.3 and a cube 450

    Did u say "cat system.log" ? Or are you talking about a regular "File" type log doing a tail in backgoround ?

    for me, at 3:15 am, my system does a daily clean up by zipping up the system.log file and starting a fresh file in the same location. GeekTool ALWAYS cannot make it through the transition - it just stops scrolling. This is probably a limitation of the tail command and probably needs a hack around it.

    10.2.3 on titanium

    Ok, I think this issue has been solved. I'm making big changes so I can't commit them right now, but you can get latest CVS sources and replace "-f" by "-F" in the appropriate place (when launching the tail command)
