I would like to analyze my PC usage and therefore have a list of when I shut down my laptop or alternatively when I logged out from my account in the last month. Is there any logfile containing this information and if yes, where can I find it?

Using Ubuntu 13.10.

Most logs are in `/var/log`, check `/var/log/user.log[.X]` and see if that's what you need. – edwin Feb 01 '14 at 00:11

@Mr.Lee - Nasty cough you have there... :D - much better than `possibly duplicate...` – Wilf Feb 01 '14 at 00:19
