Now this is an odd question. I have Knoppix 6.2.1 HD install. I also have "Log File Viewer" under "System Tools" on programs list. Additionally when I use "PC Man File Manager", using the second icon bottom left to expand file system, and find /var/log through this method - all my logs are there. You can click on one and read it using "LeafPad". I believe the information you are looking for is there, you need to know how to view it. Use PC Man File Manager. Or, print out a full list of "Bash" commands.
