Bottom line on .xsession-errors: This file is created and subsequently appended
to, on an "as needed" basis. I have another SuSE 7.3 installation which had a
few errors along the way during installation of X and KDE, on 27/12/01 and
produced such a file. Since then, it has not been touched.
SO: On my main system, the fact that .xsession-errors was never created much
less updated during the X/KDE crashes suggests ... what??? Perhaps X or the
kernel went off and tried to execute the instructions on my fire extinguisher.
