I'm reading that there is now a log here (if you use GDM, it seems): ~/.cache/gdm/session.log There's also the new-fangled journalctl interrogative method (I'm still Wheezy--and whoozy--I'm uncertain how they work): journalctl -u session-${XDG_SESSION_ID}.scope and I'm also reading gnome-shell will log errors "there" (but I cannot test any systemd hypotheses). -- "The world is full of shipping clerks who have read the Harvard Classics." — Charles Bukowski
