My previous work around had one negative side affect... with console
output redirected to the serial port, unplugging my usb keyboard (which
generates several lines of console output) caused the machine to hang
hard. A new work around I found is to specify the kernel boot parameter
"no-scroll". According to the bootparam man page: "This option tells the
console driver not to use hardware scroll (where a scroll is effected by
moving the screen origin in video memory, instead of moving the data).
It is required by certain Braille machines."
