I have this same problem, but it happens to the console upon switching out
of XFree86. I experienced this before the console driver change, as well.
Switching to VESA_132x60 and back to VGA_80x30 restores console color
sanity.  I'm not sure whether this is caused by my video card or by
XFree86, since I switched to my new card, a Diamond V550, and XFree86
(AccelX has no support for the V550) simultaneously on Saturday, and
the problem manifested itself.  My previous configuration was a Trident
9750 and AccelX, which worked fine.
