make auto generation a little bit more quiet #21

I think that auto generation of image file should be less talkative, especially that there are options in pybootchartgui that allow suppressing of sending unimportant messages to a terminal.

You can disable AUTO_RENDER and use the CUSTOM_POST_CMD facility just added to git. Thanks.

Thanks for pointing that out but it seems like a workaround to me...

I could also edit the /sbin/bootchartd and add "-q" to the pybootchartgui call. It's just that I am thinking that sensible default should be more quiet.

Unfortunately using quiet removes from the logs the message with the filename of the the rendered output, without it would be difficult to find the file. I think this should be visible even with quiet. Unfortunately logging in pybootchart may use some love so this would require some work.

I get it now.

Thanks for an explanation.
