I experimented with some themes using 'plymouth'; now, I want to get the default boot screen back with its animation. What should I do?
1 Answer
Current plymouth theme is configured by a simple symlink in /usr/share/plymouth/themes
.
Change the symlink /usr/share/plymouth/themes
to point towards /etc/alternatives/default.plymouth
sudo rm /usr/share/plymouth/themes/default.plymouth
sudo ln -s /etc/alternatives/default.plymouth /usr/share/plymouth/themes/default.plymouth
Or run
sudo dpkg-reconfigure plymouth-theme-ubuntu-logo
Assuming you still have that package installed. If not, just reinstall it with
sudo apt install plymouth-theme-ubuntu-logo
This is an answer for ubuntu. I don't know about xubuntu. It should be the same ?
