Using dummy console or taking keypress event

From: Murat Demirten

I'm trying to use dummy console on a SBC which doesn't have a vga controller on it.

Is it possible to continue using dummy console if there is no vga or framebuffer option compiled in?

The purpose for this, reading keyboard input when pressed and easiest way I know doing this through terminal interface.

Or, what method I must use to reading keypress events in user space?
