fbset should do the job. But when I run fbset on my debian 2.2
box, it said: "open /dev/fb0: no such device" but I have: 

crw--w--w-    1 root     tty       29,   0 Jul  6 01:44 /dev/fb0
crw--w--w-    1 root     tty       29,  32 Jul  6 01:44 /dev/fb1
crw--w--w-    1 root     tty       29,  64 Jul  6 01:44 /dev/fb2
crw--w--w-    1 root     tty       29,  96 Jul  6 01:44 /dev/fb3
crw--w--w-    1 root     tty       29, 128 Jul  6 01:44 /dev/fb4
crw--w--w-    1 root     tty       29, 160 Jul  6 01:44 /dev/fb5
crw--w--w-    1 root     tty       29, 192 Jul  6 01:44 /dev/fb6
crw--w--w-    1 root     tty       29, 224 Jul  6 01:44 /dev/fb7

Don't know what's wrong. you might have better luck.
