Possibly duplicate of #789174 - behaviour seems identical on natty,
oneiric and precise:

Feb 25 17:40:15 ub3pp kernel: imklog 5.8.6, log source = /proc/kmsg started.
Feb 25 17:40:15 ub3pp rsyslogd: [origin software="rsyslogd" swVersion="5.8.6" x-pid="6241" x-info="http://www.rsyslog.com"] start
Feb 25 17:40:15 ub3pp rsyslogd: rsyslogd's groupid changed to 103
Feb 25 17:40:15 ub3pp rsyslogd: rsyslogd's userid changed to 101
Feb 25 17:40:15 ub3pp rsyslogd-2039: Could not open output pipe '/dev/xconsole' [try http://www.rsyslog.com/e/2039 ]
Feb 25 17:40:15 ub3pp rsyslogd-2077: Could not create tcp listener, ignoring port 514. [try http://www.rsyslog.com/e/2077 ]
