What happens if you add -logfile xorg.log to params (and restart
sesman)?

It should then create the log file either in ~/.local/shared/xorg.log or
~/xorg.log or /var/log/xorg.log.

If it doesn't, I'm somewhat surprised…

Some random questions:

 * Is your Xorg binary suid root?
 * Do you have policykit?
 * What's in /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config ?
