New problem. Now that the kernel is no longer putting the display to
sleep and I can start X, I find that setterm command no longer
applies only to the vttys. It's now coloring my Konsoles, which I do
not want, and I don't see a way in the setterm man page to stop it.
:-(
Are you calling it from your .bashrc? A simple thing like this should
do (basically, only run setterm when connected to /dev/tty[0-9]*):
tty=$(tty)
[ "$tty" != "${tty#/dev/tty[0-9]}" ] && setterm <your
setterm args>
