+Subject: [PATCH] main: only log check-accelerated errors when debugging
+ enabled
+
+The journal currently gets spammed with messages like:
+
+gnome-session: gnome-session-check-accelerated: GL Helper exited with code 512
+gnome-session: libEGL warning: DRI2: failed to authenticate
+gnome-session: gnome-session-check-accelerated: GLES Helper exited with code 512
+
+if a the machine lacks accelerated graphics.  But lacking accelerated
+graphics isn't actually an error (many servers do).
+
+This commit changes the messages to only show when debugging is enabled.
