Xorg -retro -logverbose 9 :99 kill it with Ctrl-Alt-BS (press BS twice shortly afterwards) --> /var/log/Xorg.99.log
Is that supposed to be done via remote login? Booted to graphical.target with vga=791 on cmdline, there is only black screen and no keyboard response. I tried Xorg -retro -logverbose 9 :99 from remote anyway, but without killing this DE session with Ctrl-Alt-BS. Xorg.99.log after reset button reboot was only 2964 bytes, and Xorg.0.log 2963.
Booted without vga=791 to multi-user.target, and logged in, Xorg -retro -logverbose 9 :99 simply displayed on the screen content like these short Xorg.#.logs, and Ctrl-Alt-BS only produces ^[^H^[^H, and a new Xorg.99.log of only 2947 bytes.
Yes, doing it remotely is absolutely fine. No idea, why X logfiles get truncated. I need to give up at this point. Sorry. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
