[Bug 543248] [NEW] System testing console gives a blue screen instead of a terminal

[marroyo]

Public bug reported:

When performing the system test, it is suppose to switch from X to a
text terminal. It switches, but it only shows a funky looking blue
screen. It's definitely not suppose to look like that.
