KMS rootless X indeed puts the log in ~/.local/share/xorg. As it's enabled by default for the nouveau driver since Squeeze, the "No such file or directory" message indicates the OP is using the proprietary driver, for which KMS must be enabled manually. Kind of a roundabout, teach a fish to fly kind of thing, but Reco is twisted. Actually just kidding. How 'bout grep -B2 'Module class: X.Org Video Driver' /var/log/Xorg.0.log But then if the OP had been using the nouveau driver, he'd get a "No such file or directory" message.
