I was installing the plymouth manager in hopes of making a custom loading screen. While the terminal was working, my computer unexpectedly powered off. I can open up the manager and it appears to do what it is supposed to (minus the fact that I can't make my own theme) and the screen only shows on powering down. Anyway, all of the advice I have seen so far have resulted in errors and nothing getting fixed. I do not have permissions to simply select the folder and delete it for some reason and I have not been able to find out how to grant myself those permissions.

I guess my question then is how do I get rid of the plymouth manager so I can reinstall it properly?

  • Added a few though I'm sure there were a few more that I can't find back. As for why they didn't work, I'm not sure. If I knew then I could probably fix it myself. Jan 18, 2012 at 0:38

Well if no one has an answer then I will propose my own solution. Follow these steps:

  1. Take Ubuntu install disk
  2. Insert into CD/DVD drive
  3. Reinstall OS
