This bug is also present on the beta2 dvd install on 29 March 2012. The
.xsession-error file does not rotate on log out or reboot. It just keeps
adding to the file size until I manually remove the file than it keeps
adding line to the file until I again delele the file.

since this date report i need to delete that log to get a new one on
next reboot or log out/in, otherwise some lines are added to the

Not very sure
It still seems to be using the the *same* .xsession.errors thru log out/ins &
restarts except parts are overwritten
So after a full day that includes numerous log out/ins & restarts the file
would be 4 -5000 lines, even after a full restart.
Hard to make sense of because new entries can go anyw
LightDM has never rotated the files, it does now in the trunk version.
I can confirm the odd writing into the middle of the file, investigating
that now. I haven't been able to reproduce the case where an existing
log file doesn't get overwritten - can you check the permissions on the
file?

That was me - to add,
What's happening now is lines are being written but inside the file, not at
the end. Also every time it writes a line some are removed.
Ex. - the file is now1886 lines. (xs1). I take a screenshot, (xs2) , a couple
of lines are written, several are removed -

User comment:
Did a new install today, xsession-errors is now totally worthless.
Was written to only on the 1st session or so, then it stops completely & just
shows the same thru restarts. log outs
So it's not replaced & it's being treated as if it was modified which
prevents any further writin
