In situations where a service fails to start, systemd suggests the user to use "journalctl -xe" to get details about the failure. While running this command does provide some additional details, most of the information is similar to what was already printed when the service fails. often the actual reason for the failure can be found in the logs of the service that fails to start. This patch updates the wording to suggest using "-u" to view the service logs instead. Signed-off-by: Sebastiaan van Stijn <github@gone.nl>
