Interestingly, I see the same bug in my openQA tests:
https://openqa.happyassassin.net/tests/2782
screen goes black shortly after reaching the hub. I don't see this
message about text mode, though.
I'm wondering if it's something to do with this time jump:
15:42:59,993 DEBUG anaconda: spoke is ready:

0x7ff361670a10>
in my openQA jobs the screen seems to blank right around the time
that happens (though with the accelerated videos it's hard to be
sure).
Nope, in a manual test, the blank happens about 25 seconds after the
time jump. (The manual test VM has Spice/QXL, while my openQA uses
VNC/vga, so this doesn't seem tied to a specific video adapter or to
VNC...)
In journalctl -b I see a couple of interesting messages right around
the blank:
Mar 22 17:41:33 localhost org.a11y.Bus[1477]:
g_dbus_connection_real_closed: Remote peer vanished with error:
Underlying GIOStream returned 0 bytes on an async read (g-io-error-
quark, 0). Exiting.

g_dbus_connection_real_closed: Remote peer vanished with error:
Underlying GIOStream returned 0 bytes on an async read (g-io-error-
quark, 0). Exiting.
but haven't been able to figure much out beyond that yet...
TC4 and TC2 (which definitely doesn't have this bug for me) have the
same Xorg versions, but TC4 has kernel rc3.git0.1.fc22 while TC2 has
kernel rc1.git0.1.fc22.
