You must have lost /etc/syslog.conf
I know some setups send all this stuff to one of the ALT-Fn consoles
(/dev/tty8? Though I've never looked for it), but you should be able
to redirect it easily enough:
daemon.*;mail.none;\
news.crit;news.err;news.notice;\
*.=debug;*.=info;\
*.=notice;*.=warn |/dev/xconsole
& etc.
