I As sudo you can see *all* (I don't know a lot about systemd's journal, but I do some sysadmin for food, and the boxes at work do systemd, so the basic knowledge is there. And the above belongs to the basic knowledge. Now let's be scientific: what evidence makes you assume that there's anything in the logs you are not shown? > see gigabytes of stuff from kwin etc, but nary a syllable from what isn't > working because something blocks it. Perhaps "what isn't working" isn't logging to the syslogs at all? (this hunch has come up elsewhere in this thread). Another possibility: it is in the logs, but hidden under so much stuff that you don't see it. See, if you "do" AppImages you are multiplying your system's complexity. Each AppImage is like a little operating system (without the kernel) where the application provider dictates the rules, not Debian (that's why I avoid them like the plague). Cheers -- t
