device-manager: fall back to text mode if graphical devices fail

Right now we assume if we find a /dev/dri/card0 that it will work.
That may not be true. The proprietary nvidia driver, for instance,
provides /dev/dri/card0 but disables modesetting by default.

This commit makes sure we fall back to text mode if /dev/dri/card0
is insufficient for our needs.
