This is most probably a console driver question, which is kernel-specific ;) I wonder what should console driver say when it doesn't have a real physical console behind it. IMO, this should be a ENODEV case, or some other way to determine programmatically that this situation takes place. So, I am trying to find someone familar with console driver on linux-kernel (since this driver doesn't have a specific maintainer).
If I am wrong, and linux-kernel is not relevant, sorry..
