Only this works:
setterm --foreground white --background blue --bold on
I can't imagine that working. Logically speaking, that should be bolding the
background, not the foreground.
You need to put the relevant color the the proper place, I think
it's
order dependant:
What I've been using worked for well over a decade.
"--foreground white"
"--background blue"
I think what's order dependent is a bug in the rewrite to require the double
hyphen where previously a single did the job. I tried this:
setterm --background blue --foreground white --bold --blank 59 --store
That moved the error:
setterm: argument error: --blank
