Ther were many working dualmon console drivers available during 2 years I am using Linux. Newer kernels kept breaking them, and different people kept rewriting them.
The current situation is the following: There is a mda driver available as a module. It allows you to use hercules/mda card as a character device. Also, I think there also was a new real dualmon console driver available. I didn't try that one yet though.
