One way to capture kernel messages while running X is to get another computer and hook up their serial ports with a null-modem cable. Then boot the first computer and use the "console=ttyS0,115200" option on the boot command line (substitute the appropriate numbers for the serial port you hooked up and the baud rate to use). Run a terminal emulation program like minicom on the other computer; you'll be able to capture everything that gets sent to the console.
