On my last install of Mandrake 8 syslog used to print to the last terminal (ALT + F12) as well as file. I had to do a format and reinstall it but now syslog no longer prints to that. Does anyone know how i can get it to print there?

Read man 5 syslog.conf. Basically you want to add a line to /etc/syslog.conf like

*.* /dev/tty12

Then HUP syslog.
