Did you even search the forums for 'vidcontrol'? Plenty of topics.

yes i search the forum about vidcontrols but i didn't find anything about syscons..

 

[terietor]

is there any tutorial with examples
which explains the possibilities of "vidcontrol"??

Use something like this in your kernel config

device          sc
options         SC_NORM_ATTR="(FG_GREEN|BG_BLACK)"
options         SC_NORM_REV_ATTR="(FG_YELLOW|BG_GREEN)"
options         SC_KERNEL_CONS_ATTR="(FG_YELLOW|BG_BLACK)"
options         SC_KERNEL_CONS_REV_ATTR="(FG_RED|BG_BLACK)"

Change the colors to whatever you desire
