It seems to work now. I wrote a small python script to test for it. The script
is attached to this message, so that everybody else can try it out.

This script writes a line of text with all possible combinations of foreground
and background colours. It uses the ECMA-48 escape codes for changing colours.
It also uses the ECMA-48 bold and blink display attributes to try to change
the colours' intensity.

To use this sciprt, run it and pipe the result to a pager. If you use less,
use the -r option to allow less to print the escape sequences as raw strings.

I could not get the blink attribute working on Linux console. Traditionally it
changed the background colour to be bright, as the bold attribute does for the
foreground colour.

It's gone, thanks!
