put these lines on your postgresql.conf
syslog = 2
syslog_facility = 'LOCAL0'
syslog_ident = 'postgres'
after this you have to configure your syslogd:
add these lines on yout syslog.conf:
# Postgres
LOCAL0.* -/var/log/postgresql.log
not forget to add LOCAL0.none in your /var/log.messages log ad
ad that "-" char in front of your file location log
now you have to SIGHUP both postgres and syslogd.
