No good way that I can think of, other than replacing all calls to trellis.device() by trellis.device(theme = col.whitebg()). A hack is perhaps possible, which involves the global variable lattice.theme, which stores the settings. If you have that variable in your global environment (as part of your saved workspace, for example) with components for all the devices you want to use, lattice will use it. This will work if you start devices with x11(), postscript() etc. Unfortunately, any call to trellis.device() to start a new device will overwrite this unless retain = TRUE is specified. This includes the default invocation when print.trellis is called without any device open.
