sudo dmesg >dmesg.log then less dmesg.log to read that one. That shows everything that happened once you've logged in. Something else useful to do every so often is dmesg|grep -i fatal >dmesgfat.log dmesg|grep -i error >dmesgerr.log and dmesg|grep -i warn >dmesgwrn.log. This gives you three smaller log files all of which can be checked with wc -l dmesgerr.log. If zero comes back you got no errors a higher number tells you to look at that log. Same deal with dmesgfat.log and dmesgwrn.log.
