Linux-Libre Boot Logo
- Vous devez vous identifier ou créer un compte pour écrire des commentaires
Hey all,
I was wondering, is there a way to change the boot logo that comes up once switched over to Linux-Libre kernel? It was a really nice ASCII Trisquel-type logo, but now it's a GNU and the light-blue Penguin from Linux-Libre. I have a non-graphical startup, so I get all the system boot messages and what-not.
Thanks,

This is what comes up if you are curious:

The boot logo can be whatever you'd want it to be but changing it requires recompiling the kernel.

Maybe this can help.
Remove the "splash" word in that line if you see it fit.
Don't forget to sudo update-grub / sudo update-grub2 (I am not sure which one is the right one, so I do both, lol).

Both update-grub and update-grub2 are identical in function. They are both
stubs for running grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg. It doesn't matter which
you use. I run update-grub.
Are there any good guides on compiling kernels oneself out there? And, is there anything to consider when doing it on a Linux-Libre kernel over a Linux Kernel?
Thanks,

Here's one guide https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/compiling-gnu-linux-libre-kernel
The process is the same on GNU Linux-libre and Linux.
This is how I do it http://www.tecmint.com/kernel-compilation-in-debian-linux/
You would have to ask jxself how he puts that picture in there though i have no clue. But if you compile the linux libre kernel from a basic source at fsfla.org it won't have one.
There is a patch available that adds the image along with the appropriate other changes:
It's just a .ppm file created with commands as described in the patch.
Apply it and you have a new config option called LOGO_LIBRE_CLUT224. But this is only adding the 224-color Linux-libre logo. The kernel named Linux has had support for a boot logo for ages. Anyone can make their own image into the appropriate format and use it (or turn it off entirely.) CONFIG_LOGO (and some sub options) controls it. When you're doing make nconfig go into Drivers -> Video and look for the bootup logo to see it and subptions.
There's documentation all over the internet of how to use the Linux boot logo so enjoy. :)
tks
I installed the linux-libre 4.1 (from jxself's repo) on my Debian 8 (kali), bht it didn't show such image on the booting screen. Why?
Since your question is about Debian it seems more appropriate to ask in the Debian community about how to see the boot logo. But whatever. I imagine your GRUB config has the quiet and splash options? Remove them.
Edit the file /etc/default/grub on your system and look for "quiet" and "splash" in that file. Remove them. Run sudo update-grub and then reboot.
Nope.
I removed the"quiet" &"splash", but still...
I got success with this on the trisquel :P
