If we're unable to open /dev/ttyv0, assume that we're on a single tty system
...
and use /dev/console.
I really think the proper test is to determine which device has been configured
to be the console (remember the RB_SERIAL flag?) and use it instead of always
trying to open /dev/ttyv0 first.

Close PR#1542. Don't just assume 24 lines, get the tty size.

Some things may still display text on the 24th line, but that's because
they've always been screens designed to fit into a minimal real-estate
and have hardwired assumptions about the dimensions. They'll be a little
harder to make dynamic.
