There is keystick, but I'm sure that's not what you had in mind ;)

Actually there is no interface which does what you want that I know about.

Are there any options for a GUI interface for LinuxCNC that don't rely
on X windows?

It looks like the GPU drivers for the BeagleBone are beginning to work
with the 3.12 kernel, but so far only for the raw frame buffer and
OpenGL, not for X windows.

Is there anything that talks directly to the kernel drivers, or maybe
uses something like QT?

I'm not figuring there's anything already, but I figured I'd ask.  It
seems like even on an x86 machine, having something that ran at or close
to "bare metal" might be handy to make a dedicated use CNC control (so
no watching YouTube or surfing FaceBook while running the milling
machine!).  :)
