A recent upgrade to the kernel can change which framebuffer the linux console uses if you have a multi-gpu/multi-monitor set up.
If you need the console to appear on a different framebuffer (not which monitor, but which gpu) you add the following to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=
fbcon=map:x
Where x
is the framebuffer you want to use. (Starts at 0
)
HTH, Additions and corrections would be cool.
