Description Heiko W. Rupp 2011-12-02 10:01:00 UTC

On my box I have a driver for a usb network card. that is constantly spitting messages like 

Nov 27 00:30:12 snert cn.com.zte.Wpa.plist[31590]: Failed to initialize driver interface
Nov 27 00:30:12 snert cn.com.zte.Wpa.plist[31590]: Failed to add interface en1
Nov 27 00:30:12 snert cn.com.zte.Wpa.plist[31590]: Cancelling scan request

and thus filling the log events with non-important stuff.
It should be possible to filter to exclude com.zte.Wpa from the events shown.
There may be a way via a complex RE with some negation,but having an exclusion filter would be easier for the user.
