is that dmesg output on your top, always visible? pretty cool tbh
Thanks! It's an xconsole(1) that prints /dev/console. I configured xdm to draw it at the top of the screen when it xdm starts up. Its always on top when I first login and other windows can be drawn over it. I do auto group it with cwm tho, so if I am doing something and need to see it... I do a cwm hotkey combo which brings it back to the top.
