Hi, I have exactly the same problem. After digging through the dmesg, I found something that seems to cause the problem:
efifb: probing for efifb efifb: framebuffer at 0xd0000000, mapped to 0xffffc90005100000, using 1200k, total 1200k efifb: mode is 640x480x32, linelength=2560, pages=1 efifb: scrolling: redraw efifb: Truecolor: size=8:8:8:8, shift=24:16:8:0 fb0: EFI VGA frame buffer device fb: conflicting fb hw usage inteldrmfb vs EFI VGA - removing generic driver fb1: inteldrmfb frame buffer device And there is a bug #567747 mention this, too. Either disable i915.modeset (thus disable inteldrmfb) or disable efifb (need to recompile kernel), I can get my console back.
