Not sure what you mean by console. If that's the xterm that, when exited,
will TERM twm, then I've tried it and all I get is black.

If it's a virtual terminal, then colorls produces nice colors there.

I've tried it in the following xterms:

	xterm &
	xterm -ls &
	xterm +cm &
	xterm +cm -ls &

colorls -Gl and colorls -G produce nothing but black.
