Somehow, i find launching console.app and viewing system.log to be quite a bit easier.

... which runs tail -f /var/tmp/console.log, as running ps auwwx from a Terminal shell will reveal.

Anyone know how to enable crash logging without using Console?

/var/log/system.log is not the same as the output of dmesg.

dmesg displays the contents of the system message buffer, which is an area in memory maintained in the kernel.
