After X, the console has all the characters except for a few replaced with pseudographics.

This avoids seeing garbage from engine setup etc before X gets around to pointing the CRTCs at a new scanout buffer. Not actually a noticable problem before G80 as PRAMIN is forced to the end of VRAM by the hardware already. :040000 040000 f5abf3d72faefdbf8030d38cce3f778b74f80708 b1cd605e9c9c882f7a75b1aea2fc76feec2be383 M shared-core
