Reading the battery info breaks virtual console switching. This is why you
can't get a console again. It's the same when starting from console and
running X: The virtual console can't be switched to the graphics screen
(vt7). Maybe debugging the virtual console switching might help (although
it is only a symptom and not the cause).
