Ignoring whether this is a good idea or not, under 2.6.15 you could run dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/fb0 which would clear the framebuffer. It would end up saying "dd: /dev/fb0: No space left on device". Under 2.6.16 (and a recent git kernel), the same command clears the screen but then hangs. Was the change in behaviour intentional? I've noticed this on a couple of ARM based Zaurus handhelds under both w100fb and pxafb.
