How about we put in some sort of console logging tool so we can buffer and log the console output better? Currently if I have both a serial and tty console defined, my GDM prompter looses the mouse until I goto the XDMCP chooser and back again. I'm pretty sure it's a GDM problem, since Xdm doesn't have this issue at all. Haven't had time to chase it though. In any case, having some way to log oopses better would be really nice. Not sure how we could do it reliably for suspend/resume needs on laptops without dedicated management hardware like the ILOM stuff on Intel/Sun boxes. Dunno... just viocing my desires...
