I was in a similar predicament some time ago, then I realised that the binlog 
only logs statements that change the database, and I was testing the binlog 
facility by running select statements.

Selects do not get logged, from your comments it appears you may be making the 
mistake that I made ...

I have:

[mysqld]
(port, socket, buffer size etc)
log-bin=/var/log/mysql/mysqlbinlog
