Change plymouth splash screen lubuntu 22.04

[adrian]

Hi team,

i,m using lubuntu 22.04 and i want change the splash screen image, how to change it and update it, what is the complete path for plymouth folder? Previously I used 20.04 and edit this path /usr/share/plymouth/themes/lubuntu-logo/ and run this command update-initramfs -u, how about this lubuntu 22.04 version?

regards

There hasn’t been any change (that I’m aware of; though the last change was to allow OEM branding to appear and I forget what release that was, eg. when I boot this box I see the HP logo above Lubuntu’s, if I use a Dell box it’ll be Dell log above… etc).

My current Lubuntu system is a lunar or 23.04 install, and looking in the directory (actually one level up) you mention I see

guiverc@hpprodesk400g1sff:/usr/share/plymouth/themes$  ls -lah

If I want to select one & see what I’m offered

guiverc@hpprodesk400g1sff:/usr/share/plymouth/themes$   sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth
[sudo] password for guiverc: 
There are 3 choices for the alternative default.plymouth (providing /usr/share/plymouth/themes/default.plymouth).

  Selection    Path                                                           Priority   Status

  2            /usr/share/plymouth/themes/lubuntu-logo/lubuntu-logo.plymouth   150       manual mode
  3            /usr/share/plymouth/themes/xubuntu-logo/xubuntu-logo.plymouth   150       manual mode

Press <enter> to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number: 

ie. on my own system I have the Lubuntu & Xubuntu options (it’s a Lubuntu install, on which I added the Xubuntu desktop as some days I want my box to look a little different for a change (and I do like Xfce too))

The old guides still work, eg. How do I change the plymouth bootscreen? - Ask Ubuntu and you’ll be offered whatever options are suitable for your current system (ie. its possible that some really old plymouth screens that worked on 14.04/trusty or earlier can exist in your directory, but be ignored as incompatible on your modern system)
