In openSUSE Tumbleweed, this issue has already been addressed; the signal qiuality update has been changed to be debug output, rather than info output. I added a patch to MM and submitted it to the GNOME 3.14.2 stack update; as this is a rather minor issue (functionality is not affected at all), it does not warrant for a speedier update than that imho. I think a better fix than changing the message priority from INFO to DEBUG would be to remember the value reported last, and then only emit a new message if the current value is different from the last value. If values change too frequently, some throttling may be appropriate, also. The fix is 100% in line with what MM does upstream in version 1.4.0; openSUSE-RU-2015:0203-1: An update that has 9 recommended fixes can now be installed.

When connected via broadband, ModemManager logs this message every 30 seconds to syslog: ModemManager[1436]: <info> Modem /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/2: signal quality updated (40) The thing is, it does not log a change, but a state (my signal quality was 40 all the time): # journalctl | cut -d' ' -f5- | sort | uniq -c [...] 7 ModemManager[1436]: <info> Modem /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/2: access technology changed (hsdpa -> umts) 8 ModemManager[1436]: <info> Modem /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/2: access technology changed (umts -> hsdpa) 1 ModemManager[1436]: <info> Modem /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/2: access technology changed (unknown -> umts) 969 ModemManager[1436]: <info> Modem /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/2: signal quality updated (40) 1 ModemManager[1436]: <info> Modem /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/2: state changed (connecting -> connected) 1 ModemManager[1436]: <info> Modem /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/2: state changed (disabled -> enabling) 1 ModemManager[1436]: <info> Modem /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/2: state changed (enabling -> registered) [...] Syslog is about logging changes, not about logging states.
