Re: killing the penguin (framebuffer)



One way to get rid of it is, after you log in, type:

reset

at the command prompt. That resets your TTY parameters to the default, and gets rid of the penguin.

If you put "vga=normal" in /etc/lilo.conf, you will also need to run the "lilo" command to write a new boot sector.

But I suggest leaving the framebuffer, you can run at higher resolution and use nice fonts like the one from Sun. Just type reset to get rid of the penguin.

Best,

Mike
