Is there any application to monitor the system log file?
This is a home system
I usually open a terminal, go into root and type "journalctl -f" and leave it
at that.
But 1. I do not want to have a a root session open always. 2.There have to be a more
efficient method, I think.
I am using Xfce
Thanks
If you were to run "journalctl -f" as a normal user you would see this hint...
You are currently not seeing messages from other users and the system.
Users in groups 'adm', 'systemd-journal', 'wheel' can see
all messages.
So, add your user name to one of those groups.
