Please don't top post :)

Yes,it is printk() you need....use highest priority level...most
likely the message will be dumped right on the screen..instead of
being catched by syslogd. And assuming that your X is running
something similar to "syslog", it will be printed to X too. I remember
seeing this kind of thing in KDE 3.x
