A new version of the file is created when you start an X session, but it
isn't deleted when you log out. Thus, if you log into a text console
before starting X, you'll still have the list of errors from your last
GUI session and that may have the info you need. If you prefer not to
examine it in text mode, use this to change the name before going back
to your regular login screen:
mv .xsession-errors errors.txt
This will not only keep it from being overwritten, it will change it
from a hidden file to a regular one, making it easier to to find in your
file manager.
