You could try running it from a commandline with strace like:

strace -o strace-cedega cedega

This will put the info in the output file "strace-cedega" rather than
just running it rapidly on your screen.

From man strace:

"...intercepts  and records the system calls which are called by a
proess and the signals which are received by a process.  The name of
each system call, its arguments and its return value are printed on
standard error or to the file specified with the -o option."
