"linux" is, of course, the wrong terminal type. For color xterm's, the
correct type is "xterm-color". (dselect doesn't seem to be using colors
in the main menu, but it does in the selection screen.) Not that it works
too well for me, anyway (color-aware programs seem to want to prefer the
background to be black, and will set it to back when exiting).
