Hi Alex,

thanks for the fast answer, I had no luck with the dummy devices, so I
have to forward additional input devices via usbpassthru or pcipassthru
of a USB Card.

The other console_inits are in the device files like: ( some from 30
files total)
./hw/unicore32/puv3.c:101:    graphic_console_init(NULL, 0, &no_ops, NULL);
./hw/display/pl110.c:467:    s->con = graphic_console_init(dev, 0,
&pl110_gfx_ops, s);
./hw/display/vga-isa-mm.c:138:    s->vga.con =
graphic_console_init(NULL, 0, s->vga.hw_ops, s);
./hw/display/exynos4210_fimd.c:1920:    s->console =
graphic_console_init(DEVICE(dev), 0, &exynos4210_fimd_ops, s);
./hw/display/vmware_vga.c:1203:    s->vga.con =
graphic_console_init(dev, 0, &vmsvga_ops, s);
./hw/display/cirrus_vga.c:2920:    s->con = graphic_console_init(dev, 0,
s->hw_ops, s);
./hw/display/cirrus_vga.c:2966:     s->vga.con =
graphic_console_init(DEVICE(dev), 0, s->vga.hw_ops, &s->vga);
./hw/display/vga-pci.c:154:    s->con =
graphic_console_init(DEVICE(dev), 0, s->hw_ops, s);

But you are right, its more a feature with a additional parameter for x-vga.

Thanks,
 Tobias
