I'm sorry.. I don't have an answer to your question.. but I do have a 
couple suggestions...

I feel that "Log Viewer" is over-rated.  I prefer to view my logs 
directly in the /var/logs dir.  If you use the less command
(example:  less /var/log/messages    (or other log file).. the END key 
should take you to the bottom.  *shrug*

Also, if you just want to see the last 100 (or ?) lines of a file.. try 
the tail command (see "man tail").
For example, if I want to see the last 100 lines of my maillog file.. I 
can use:
# tail -100 /var/log/maillog

Hope this is helpful.
