System - Debian 3.0 (Woody)

Where do I configure to capture the debug messages from the defaut window
manager? I went and edited /etc/gdm/Sessions/fvwm file to capture stderr
messages. I cannot find any error messages file anywhere on the system.

The /etc/gdm/Sessions/fvwm file has the following script:

#!/bin/sh
#
# /etc/gdm/Sessions/fluxbox
#
# global fluxbox session file -- used by gdm

exec /etc/X11/Xsession /usr/bin/fvwm2 -debug


I added the -debug option. I have even tried "2> $HOME/FVWM-errors" which
does not capture the messages into any file.
