list of errors

[Kirk]

is there a way to generate a list of common error messages in linux? or generate a list of any kind of errors? maybe i would have to do it say, one type at a time. so first the video error messages, then kernels, etc...

phew, that's pretty impossible, there are simply too many possible errors, every service has its own error messages. so if an error occurs the first place to check is /var/log/syslog for info about the error and then google for it.

but a good place to start might be http://linux.die.net/man/3/errno" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
