I am trying to talk to the console.device and am getting errors back
from CMD_WRITE's.  I looked in devices/console.h, but it only has some
definitions for sending escape sequences....  I think the error code
is actually the number of characters typed ahead on the keyboard.  If
so, how do I tell if there is a real error, and why is this being
returned in io_Error?
