Color Framebuffer

Hi, how would I switch to a color framebuffer on the Z2? I'm not familiar with OE's boot loader.

I've been messing about with some ncurses apps and they only appear in black & white, but when I ssh to another machine, the color appears fine. Any ideas?

Thanks.

    I figured it out myself. For anyone else that's interested, open /etc/profile. comment out this line: test -z "$TERM" && TERM="vt100" # Basic terminal capab. For screen etc. and add this line: TERM="linux"

    That should do it.
