Denis> On my Thinkpad L420 a message appears very briefly just prior to
Denis> the login screen.  I have tried unsuccessfully to take a video of
Denis> it since it appears for too short a time to read.  This morning I
Denis> got the idea to delay entering my sign-in for two minutes.  Then
Denis> I could look at dmesg and find the entries around the sign-in.
Denis> Below is the section of (possible) interest.  Nothing has meaning
Denis> to me.  How else might I find out what this mystery message is?
