How do I customise my Plymouth theme?


I want to update my splash screen (when I boot or logoff), logo etc... to use the solar theme.


I did:


sudo apt-get install plymouth-theme-solar

then I went to the themes folder to customize it:


/lib/plymouth/themes/

and I updated logos and other images:


sudo update-initramfs -u

I think this command is the right one to run but when I run it, nothing is updated


What am I missing?



This should do the trick:



sudo apt-get install galternatives


sudo galternatives



Then select your theme from key default-plymouth and do the update-initramfs -u again.
