The way I usually do it is open a javascript console and type:
>> window.debugging = "all"
And then cockpit should start spewing output into the console.
If you want to just do "spawn" it's a little more tricky, as you (now)
have to get that command into the right cockpit frame:
>> for (x in window.frames) { x.debugging = "spawn"; };
Hope that helps. This sounds like something we should document, and
perhaps make the second case a bit better.
Cheers,
Stef
