Quite simple really :-).
- Enable Developer mode and set the SSH password (if you haven't already).
- Connect with PuTTy.
- Run:
/opt/alien/system/bin/logcat
This can be done as the user "nemo". Root permission seem not to be needed. You might want to change settings of PuTTy to see more lines (Window -> Lines of scrollback).
Root seems to be needed in order to see all logs.
