[syslog-ng]postfix requiring syslog?

[netsec novice]

I am using SuSE 8.1 to build a cental syslog server and have installed 
syslog-ng.  I need to run postfix in order to send alerts.  Now that I have 
disabled syslog and enabled/installed syslog-ng, postfix no longer starts on 
its own at boot.  When I attempt to start it manually, it responds that 
syslog is required to be running to start postfix.. do I want to start 
syslog?  If I say yes then postfix starts fine but I don't really want to be 
running syslog AND syslog-ng do I?  Linux is new to me so I apologize for my 
ignorance.  Is there a simple work-around to tell postfix to use syslog-ng 
rather than syslog?  I guess I don't understand where this dependency comes 
from.  Any help is appreciated.
