Bug#202923: /usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86: /var/log/XFree86.0.log has no timestamps
Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: 4.2.1-9
Severity: minor
File: /usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86
the file /var/log/XFree86.0.log has no timestamps so one can't tell
which session it is reporting on. OK, it is only one session. But
when X fails and then gets restarted automatically, the old log is
replaced. So either add timestamps and keep more than one log.
Same problem for ~/.xsession-errors
You see, when X crashes and gets restarted automatically where is one
too look for what caused it...
perhaps the crash was because I apt-got some fonts during the session,
that got later used in gnus...
