yes, assuming that console is is on your screen  ;-)

of course the console redirection of /proc kernel messages mechanisms  have
to be running - i.e. don't expect output when you're in 'single'

- although the info is indeed in the kernel /proc log. and you could tee it
to the screen and a file by hand...

Once klogd is going everything's fine.  (this is why I often enable the
grape-shot approach... )

>(I assume that you don't mean the serial console here, but indeed my screen?)

I'm fairly sure that as far as xmon is concerned - console is console - if
you set your console to a serial port elsewhere - I would expect the xmon
output to come out of that instead.

nope, not that I know.

BTW: if you enable serial output in xmon - be aware you have to make sure
the baud rate is correct by hand as well.  By default it is set to 115 kb
(IIRC) correct for talking via modem - but pretty useless for most
"hardware" terminals

I wrote the scc formula down somewhere... (but you can find it in the serial
drivers with a little look).

good luck,
Iain.
