because the "linux,stdout-path" property in the device tree always points=

So my question is: what do I need to do get the login prompt on the video

I presume I need to direct "linux,stdout-path" to the fslfb node in the d=

tree, but there doesn't appear to be support for "linux,stdin-path".

Look in /etc/inittab.  That's usually where the login gettys are specified.
