with pk:
Use dev/rcons/files.rcons in the pmax config file.
Use "rasterconsole" as the tag in pmax/conf, and modify the pmax
framebuffer pseudo-device drivers (fb and rcons) to us rasterconsole.h and
RASTERCONSOLE for compile-time configuration of the rcons pseudo-device.
Modify the pmax rcons pseudo-device driver to initialize a little-endian,
QVSS-compatible font (set its ascent, and set the rconsole structure to
point to that font) before calling rcons_connect().
Tested on a cfb. The ascent may be wrong (or at least, not be aligned with
the hw cursor sprite) on a 3100.
auto-configuration initialization code is missing. It uses "needs-count"
flags to come slightly close to what the old-style pmax source expects.
Perhaps autoconfig code can be lifted from the alpha port or volunteers
found to write some.
