Hmmm... Martin, if you still have a Xorg.log it means you have a really old installation, or you installed syslog-ng and integrated it with journalctl, something that is not standard anymore. Heck, OpenSUSE just removed it of Tumbleweed, it's a sign of the times. That would only be true if systemd launched Xorg directly. Xorg writes its log file on its own, not through syslog and not to the journal; I can tell you that on my fully up-to-date system, at least, Xorg writes to /var/log/Xorg.X.log (or to ~/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.X.log for non-root Xorg).
You mean the contents of the xorg-server.install file?
post_upgrade() { if (( $(vercmp $2 1.16.0-3) < 0 )); then post_install fi }
post_install() { cat <<MSG >>> xorg-server has now the ability to run without root rights with the help of systemd-logind. xserver will fail to run if not launched from the same virtual terminal as was used to log in. Without root rights, log files will be in ~/.local/share/xorg/ directory.
Old behavior can be restored through Xorg.wrap config file. See Xorg.wrap man page (man xorg.wrap). MSG }
xorg-server.install (END)
That was true for versions under 1.16.0-3 as evidenced by the version comparison, but it is not true anymore, Xserver 1.17 dumps its logs to syslog. And syslog is trapped by journalctl.
Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr No it does not this system is fully up to date . I use startx to start the graphical display nothing in journalctl it is in /var/log/Xorg.0.log .... Sorry to disapoint and all that .. Pete . -- Illegitimi non carborundum . ro for the purists out there Noli nothis permittere te terere.
