SubjectRe: [Linux-fbdev-devel] Help re Frame Buffer/Console Problems
I have just tested it and at the moment it does not. I suspect that
something needs to be registered in the 'panic_notifier_list' to do some
basic resets on the colour palette.

For the moment I will just ensure that colour 255 <> colour 0 by some
visible margin (Black/Dark Slate).

Mark.
