I am running fedora, so using systemd.  Where would I find the logs in
/var/log/ (/var/log/journal/ has a directory named
19a3360c5cac4dd7abd27b7d5b9aac98 and there does not seem to be readable
files in it)?  When I use the journalctl command, i have to constantly
space to get the next page of data.  It cuts out at April 5, with this as
the last message (making me think there is some other issue going on):

NVIDIA(GPU-0): ONKYO Corporation TX-NR525 (DFP-2): connected
Failed to get journal fields: Bad message
