e.g.: if you use startx, you can create a simple $HOME/.xinitrc file that will run:
ERRFILE=$HOME/.xsession-errors rm -f $ERRFILE touch $ERRFILE chmod 600 $ERRFILE exec /etc/X11/Xsession
Note that if you run two X sessions simultaniously, the second file's
However if your X sessions are long-running such a strategy won't do (and deleting that file in the middile of a session won't help you a bit).
If you are not interested in keeping the errors around then a periodic "echo -n > $HOME/.xsession-errors" will truncate the file even while the file is opened in append mode by running applications. It's also a better strategy to replace the above "rm/touch/chmod" because it avoids the risk that the "removed" file is still used by some old process, as well as not having to restore the files permissions.
