Laptop mode -- where to find error messages on boot

Hi guys,

I get some error messages when booting. I have the time to read that they are related to laptop-mode, but they quickly disappear.
I have activated the ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE_TOOLS in my laptop-mode.conf file, but I can't find the error messages in /var/log :

/var/log » ll                                                                                                                              nico@cotier

Do you know where they might be?

Thanks!

Re: Laptop mode -- where to find error messages on boot

grep all these logs and systemd's journal.
If you have 'quiet' on the kernel line of your bootloader, remove it.
