Last time I talked to Thomas and others it wasn't "text only" but text
also in that you can just cat a debugfs file for simple tracing. And I
totally agree with that. If you don't trace too much that's absolutely
enough. It's not enough for large traces on highly loaded enterprise
or high-end embedded systems or things like flight recorder tracing, but
for those requiring an external viewer is just fine.
