Just confirming that this bug is still present in Karmic Koala.
After installation of MC, /usr/lib/mc/mc/cons.saver is verified as being unable to do it's job due to a permission problem while accessing /dev/vcsa*
Suggested fix: grant appropriate permissions on /dev/vcsa* on vt login. Suggested workaround pending application of fix: make cons.saver sgid tty
