1. If you choose "White on black" color scheme and the "Linux console" Palette color scheme, you *still get white on black*. The Palette scheme *doesn't* affect the background and foreground color of the terminal. You can choose any other Palette color scheme and you'll still get white on black.

2. The first sentence here says that it's the other way around, that the Palette scheme does in fact affect foreground and background colors, which it doesn't.

3. BTW. Why mention the "Linux Console" Palette scheme, when the Palette itself is explained next in its own section?
