System event viewer.
 
Is it possible?

I know there's the X-Term command that displays events like the last time the camera cover or keyboard were opened and closed, but what about a similar thing for viewing software events.

i.e
Camera app started at such a time - Camera app stopped at such a time.
SMS app started......... - SMS app stopped........
Instinctiv started.......... - Instinctiv stopped........
MyPaint started........... - Mypaint hang at.......... - Reason = Blahh de blahh error in Thingummajig.

Just like Windows Event Viewer. That's a huge help when finding out which program/service is causing grief on the PC.
Surely the N900 has a crash log that can be viewed someway?

Ideas on a postcard to Maemo Brainstorm :p

Thanks for the reply Ima.

I was actually linked to that one from the Nokia Forums, (should have included that in my original post).

I was looking to something with a GUI, which is why I decided to create a Brainstorm.
