I pasted ".xsession-errors" into the "Search:" field at the upper right corner of any Debian wiki page and clicked the "Text" button. https://wiki.debian.org/JigdoOnLive?action=fullsearch&context=180&value=.xsession-errors&fullsearch=Text The only helpful match is https://wiki.debian.org/JigdoOnLive?action=fullsearch&context=180&value=.xsession-errors&fullsearch=Text "What Does The Log Say? ... If you're doing something with your window manager or other X client programs, then their output probably won't be visible to you immediately. The location of their output will depend on how you started X. If you used startx(1) from a console, the output probably appeared on that console (try Ctrl-Alt-F1 to get back to it, then Alt-F7 (usually) to get back to X). If you logged in with xdm(8), then xdm creates a file called .xsession-errors in your home directory, and you should look there. gdm(8) uses .gnome-errors. The other "*dm" programs may have similar files." But i simply should have remembered that olde file or have looked for ~/.x* rather than only for ~/.X* as i did. The wiki page asks "Am I Alone?" Surely not. Time is a harsh mistress. > https://0pointer.de/blog/projects/journalctl.html I suffer substantial stack pain ... Have a nice day :) Thomas
