The X11 server creates a seperate log file for each of your displays. Display numbers start at zero, so your first display display 0 will log to Xorg.
The next display display 1 would log to Xorg. Not all log files are designed to be read by humans. Some were made to be parsed by applications. Below are some of examples. To view currently logged in users, use the who command. There is also a longer list here. Otherwise, it will be under the name System Log.
The log viewer has a simple interface. The sidebar on the left shows a list of open log files, with the contents of the currently selected file displayed on the right. The log viewer not only displays but also monitors log files for changes. The bold text as seen in the screenshot above indicates new lines that have been logged after opening the file. Clicking on the cog at the top right of the window will open a menu allowing you to change some display settings, as well as open and close log files.
There is also a magnifying glass icon to the right of the cog that allows you to search within the currently selected log file. It is also important to know how to view logs in the command line.
The most basic way to view files from the command line is using the cat command. Active 11 years, 1 month ago. Viewed 13k times. Improve this question. Add a comment. Active Oldest Votes.
