My understanding of the pdc console is that it is output only,
used only until a real console device is available, and so wont
work as a linux console.  Hopefully someone will correct me if I'm
wrong.

I turned off LCD support in the release kernels because of reports
that it was causing problems on some systems.  See
<http://bugs.parisc-linux.org/db/10/104.html>.  You can turn it
back on if you build your own kernel.
