log viewer for FC6

[u-noneinc-s]

I did a 2 cd install and did an update then started adding the rest with yum little by little.
Now that I'm playing around with it and finding what else I need, I find no logviewer, and I can find nothing through yum either. I was very fond of "system-logviewer" on FC5, but I can;'t seem to find any for FC6 (and searching FC5 core and extras didn't come up with any either).
yum whatprovides system-logviewer only returns redhat-artwork.i386 5.0.8-1.fc6 for the icons.

In my FC6 Gnome install it's under:

System > Administration > System Log

Command is: gnome-system-log

Thanks Wayne

I'm running KDE, but I'll give it a try.

I did find the one I was using with FC5, I guess it was left over from FC3. If anyone is interested ...

OK, I've seen this one under FC5 (couldn't find it in the repo though).
system-logviewer-0.9.11-1 was actually able to open logs that gnome-system-log wouldn't open (claiming not a valid log file). /var/log/rpmpkgs for one.

A quick Google turns up:

Thanks again.
Definitely going to have to check it out. I didn't even think to look for a KDE one, but since I did a full KDE install through yum after FC6 install I would have thought I'd get one if there is one.

This looks nice. No FC6 rpms though. Not in Extras either. I think it'd be a nice Extras candidate.

I had problems with it. It claimed most of the logs I wanted to open didn't exist (or something like that).
I haven't looked into it yet, but I suspect it is just a matter of configuration.
