The logs should still be there.

Frankly, I've never trusted upgrades vs. fresh installs of ANY OS. There
are too many variables to deal with when trying to upgrade a system that
has been in use for a year or two. I doubt you'll find many sys admins
that upgrade production systems as opposed to doing fresh installs. 

Also... if you had been using Linux to run a website instead of as a
desktop system, you probably wouldn't be hitting these problems. I
suspect that a lot of your problems have to do with GTK/GNOME stuff in
the background, since you're saying the issues were with Mozilla and
Evolution.
