It's in the post from the guy that got framebuffer working for x50v:
"Graphics support->Console display driver support:enable VGA8X8 and VGA8x16"

When these are enabled (the mini one can stay enabled too), the text
is realy nicely readable on the x50v (kinda hard to read with the mini
font on that resolution).

Is there a way to put messages on screen in the linuxrc script? Would
be great for us without a serial cable :-)

Thanks for uploading! As for the aximx30.c file not compiling, that's
in the previously mentioned post too:

f) modify aximx30.c to support new kernel: from kernel 2.6.13
,the macros to setup machine descrtipion is delete from kernel
source,so you should modify the endof aximx30.c as following:

       MACHINE_START(X30, "Dell Axim X30")
#if 0
       MAINTAINER("Giuseppe Zompatori, <giuseppe_zompatori_at_yahoo.it>")
       BOOT_MEM(0xa8000000, 0x40000000, io_p2v(0x40000000))
       BOOT_PARAMS(0xa0000100)
       MAPIO(x30_map_io)
       INITIRQ(x30_init_irq)
#endif
       .phys_ram = 0xa8000000,
       .phys_io = 0x40000000,
       .io_pg_offst = (io_p2v(0x40000000) >> 18) & 0xfffc,
       .boot_params = 0xa0000100,
       .map_io = x30_map_io,
       .init_irq = x30_init_irq,
       .timer = &pxa_timer,
       .init_machine = x30_init,
MACHINE_END
