CLEAR_COLORMAP(1)  —  USER COMMANDS

NAME

clear_colormap − make console text visible

SYNOPSIS

clear_colormap [ −no ] [ −f framebuffer ]

DESCRIPTION

Clear_colormap ensures that text displayed on the console is visible.  If no options are specified it clears the frame buffer and initializes the first two colormap entries.  If the frame buffer has an overlay plane it is also cleared, its colormap is initialized, and the overlay enable plane is set so that the entire overlay plane is displayed. 

OPTIONS

−n Do not clear the frame buffer or overlay plane. 

−o Do not clear the overlay plane, initialize its colormap, or modify the overlay enable plane. 

−f framebuffer
Operate on frame buffer device framebuffer instead of the default, /dev/fb.
