I checked. The bad news is that neither .xsession-errors nor a log in /var/log/xwin/ are produced in /var/log/xwin on an *unsuccessful* attempt.
The *successful* attempt afterwards results in .xsession-errors containing [ ** Message: couldn't connect to dbus session bus: Verbindung ist geschlossen ** Message: couldn't connect to dbus session bus: Verbindung ist geschlossen ** Message: couldn't connect to dbus session bus: Verbindung ist geschlossen Socket /tmp/fam-admin/fam- has wrong permissions Failed to connect to socket /tmp/fam-admin/fam- executing 'uxterm', pid 1512 ] and /var/log/xwin/XWin.0.log containing [ [ 9196.250] (II) AIGLX: enabled GLX_MESA_copy_sub_buffer [ 9196.250] (II) 503 pixel formats reported by wglGetPixelFormatAttribivARB [ 9196.250] pixelFormat 36: has 1 overlay, 0 underlays which aren't currently handledgetAttrValue failed to find attr 0x2039, using default value 0 [ 9196.250] getAttrValue failed to find attr 0x203b, using default value 0 [ 9196.250] pixelFormat 37: has 1 overlay, 0 underlays which aren't currently handledgetAttrValue failed to find attr 0x2039, using default value 0 [ 9196.250] getAttrValue failed to find attr 0x203b, using default value 0 ... ...(lots of similar lines differing only in one number)... ...
