I think there are patches to print panic messages to the frame buffer if it is in use; but that still requires the X server to be configured to use the kernel-provided frame buffer, and that can be quite slow (and it also has other problems like not working on dual-head setups etc.)
btw, with a dual-head video card and two monitors is it possible to have X showing on one monitor and text console on the other (to get a kernel panic message printed out there)? Max
