Most console terminals have only 8 background colours, 16 foreground

How can I find out how many colors the konsole is using, how many colors the
xterm is using? Any idea? I am using Debian Etch.

will tell you how many colours Vim thinks the terminal has. I'm not sure how
it distinguishes terminals with 8 background and 16 foreground colours. There
might also be an X.org utility and/or a kde utility, but I don't know about them.
