I don't know if my subject line made any sense, but what I'm trying to do
is this: I recently switched from booting in runlevel 5 to runlevel 3. I'm
using Xtart to give me a choice of window managers. Since I started doing
that, I am noticing several errors and warnings fly by in text mode before
the screen switches into graphics mode and launches my window manager of
choice. When I log out of my window manager session, some of the info
(plus additional output generated during my session) is visible on the
screen, but much of it has already scrolled off the top.

I want to know how I can capture all that info so that I can look at it
after my session is over. I tried using the "pause" key to pause before
the screen switches to graphics mode, but no dice. So, is there a way that
I can either page up and see the text mode output that has already
scrolled up or redirect the output to a file or something like that?

Thanks.
