That's what I though too, but I've tried this on 2 different 712's and
have the same behavior. What is strange is that the framebuffer can
display white text with no problem on the console (the default cursor is
white). Also, under X, specifying #fefefe shows up as "almost white".

Any other ideas?  I thought that possibly the rgb.txt was not getting
loaded, but I'm fairly certain that it is.
