Hi Alf,

if applications started by the user or session autostart cause warnings
and errors for the current user session, they are often written to

~/.xsession-errors

the messages for the user session you run before were written to

~/.xsession-errors.old

You also could try

strace -o ardour.log -p $(pidof ardour)

To be honest, I never started strace for an app _after_ an issue
appeared. I don't know, if this does give useful output.

Regards,
Ralf
