What's your TERM environment variable set to? On my system, if it's "linux", "rxvt", or "xterm-debian" it uses color and lines. "vt100" goves lines but no color. "xterm" gives ASCII chars and no color. The default for a console should be "linux". For an Xterm from the deb package, it should be "xterm-debian". For an rxvt, it should be "rxvt".
