** Description changed:

  It seems that if you leave a text-mode terminal alone for some time, it
  will go into a power-saving mode of some sort. I don't know how to
  otherwise describe it, so here are two pictures that show what I mean:
  
- http://thingmajig.org/tmp/strange_0.jpg - normal text-mode terminal
- http://thingmajig.org/tmp/strange_1.jpg - the same terminal after being left 
alone for a while, missing grey, blue and purple (note: the screen _does_ go 
fully blank after some time)
+ http://test.thingmajig.org/25-08-07_0006.jpg - normal text-mode terminal
+ http://test.thingmajig.org/25-08-07_0005.jpg - the same terminal after being 
left alone for a while, missing grey, blue and purple (note: the screen _does_ 
go fully blank after some time)
  
  Dapper simply blanked the entire screen instead of doing this, and I
  feel it's much better and less awkward that way. I actually don't know
  whether this is a bug, or a feature, or a change in default settings,
  but either way, I believe that this is worth looking at.
