Thanks Gergely but using syslog-ng from packages, returns me this error:

Starting syslog_ng.
Error opening file for reading; filename='/dev/klog', error='Device busy (16)'
Error initializing source driver; source='s_local', id='s_local#2'
Error initializing message pipeline;
/etc/rc.d/my_syslog-ng: WARNING: failed to start syslog_ng.
