How to display different FBSPLASH theme on different console?

Is it possible to do this?
Use different theme on different console/vc/tty ?

Sorry that I didn't make myself clear. I was asking about fbsplash themes.

I believe so, my .zshrc looks like this, but you should be able to adjust this to fit your needs:

if [[ -z "$DISPLAY" ]] && [[ $(tty) = /dev/vc/1 ]]; then

# If I'm logging in from the virtual terminal, and DISPLAY isn't set
# then run startx. When it's done (when I stop X) log me out

  startx
  logout
fi

You could change that to just check for which vc you are on, and adjust your environment accordingly.
