emacs background on console/tty

When I start emacs on a virtual console it provides me with a somehow
light gray background though according to my settings a black background
is expected.

In ~/.zshrc I have these lines:

if [ -n $DISPLAY ];
        then export TERM="xterm-256color"
        else export TERM="linux"
fi

The ~/.emacs setup for console colors is:

(if window-system nil
 (set-background-color "color-25")
 (set-foreground-color "yellow")
 (custom-set-faces 
'(default ((t (:foreground "yellow"))))
'(highline-face ((t (:background "black"))))
'(font-lock-keyword-face ((t (:foreground "cyan"))))
'(mode-line ((t (:background "black" :foreground "red"))))
 (blink-cursor-mode nil)))

As far as I understand this it has something to with ncurses colors on a
console but it did not help me much anyway.
