Generally, it should be possible, but you would need to be superuser
I guess.
You can run xterm with the -C switch, which tells it to grab the
console.
You can do it as root, or when you run X through xdm.
So generally, there should be some way, how to receive the system
messages,
although I don't know how, and if you wrote a program which does so,
and copies the messages to its stdout and ran it in the background of
your telnet session, you should be able to see the messages.

You need to install the package xpm-3.4f (or newer), it contains the
dynamic library you need, its static version and the sxpm program
(show XPixMap)

Don't know either but I don't think you need them that much.

Why do you want to make other people sick.... or does the site
contain
some interesting code for increasing free HDD space (and it really
can be ran only with M$IE?) :-)))
