This was a bug, which was only exposed by my changes.
It depended on the setting of $_console: $_console is a protected
setting. But there is/was confusion between config.console and
config.console_video: $_console sets config.console_video and not
config.console. config.console is set if certain ioctls find out that we
are running on the console. I don't completely understand this but the
following should fix your problem as well:

else {
- if (!can_do_root_stuff && config.console) {
+ if (!can_do_root_stuff && config.console_video) {
/* force use of Slang-terminal on console too */
config.console = config.console_video = config.vga = config.graphics = 0;
config.cardtype = 0;
and I prefer this (+ my complete earlier patch) to your solution;)
IMHO the member config.console should be eliminated here to avoid
further confusion but let's do that later.
Please let me know if this helps you too.
