 Run the "nano" text edtor in the Terminal activity in Sugar.  You will see
 all the reversed text like the Shortcut key definitions, messages when you
 save a text file, etc.

 Run "nano" on a Linux console tty.  All reversed text like the shortcut
 keys will not be visible.

 Jnettlet says this may be a viafb issue.  But that may become  irrelevant
 once we move to a KMS-based video driver.

 If it isn't the above, then maybe our termcap or terminal environment
 variable for the Linux console is incorrect.

 See in 11.2.0 os11.
