the "clear" command in your .logout might do the trick.

I (and others) have asked for this a few times. In general too many
people complained about changing the status quo. It is rather easy to

Instead of all this futzing around, why not use a getty designed for
what you are doing?? I use mingetty. Not only is it smaller than
agetty, and a hair faster -- it also clears term. I have it display
linux_logo above my login prompt. When I log out Linux_logo reappears
and all is fresh again.

Unless you are tied to agetty for a reason, mingetty does this
automatically. Works similar to Sun's console getty.

Jieyo,
Add the 'clear' command to your .bash_logout file.

I was trying to do a clear screen after I logout from the console before the
login
prompt appears.
Any idea how this can be done? I tried some escape sequence but doesn't
work.
TIA.
