Comment 10 for bug 1247906

The heavily corrupted console got me thinking and there's a more telling/simpler
way to see the problem:

Boot guest to lighdm

ssh in twice and get root.

in the 1st ssh do a chvt 1
  This doesn't return

so that's probably the underlying problem.
In the 2nd vt I did an
echo t > /proc/sysrq-trigger

and for chvt I got:
