I'd like to know if errors have happened, so I'm warned and can replace the bad memory before the situation gets worse and the computer corrupts data, starts to have random crashes etc.. So, is there a way to get ECC corrections into a syslog file, or a tool to query the BIOS for the number of corrections since booting, or anything the like?
