 On olpc3-17: Linux startup completes and we are left sitting in the
 virtual terminal until we fiddle with the keyboard.

 To reproduce on a laptop running olpc3-17:

  * Start up.
  * Observe that the system waits in the virtual terminal with a login
 prompt.
  * Press return, switch the virtual terminals with alt+left or alt+right.
  * Observe that X starts within several seconds.

 At first I wasn't sure if there was a correlation between X startup and my
 attempts to login (hitting enter, alt+left/right, etc.), but it appears
 that the system will sit indefinitely (overnight in some cases) until it
 receives some keyboard input.
