Update:
Based on a request from alex_c, I took a cursory look at
the eeprom configuration:

and as I foun myself puzzled by the use of "myscreen", I did:
[coleco-sidewinder!jhawk] ~# eeprom output-device=screen
And now xlogin works on the PCI video card again. Ctrl-P gives
a white screen with no login prompt on either video card.
Something is still wrong, but the machine still seems OK.
Then I rebooted.
Now the prom, xlogin, and the text mode console, on the motherboard video card
all work.
