How can I change the startup splash screen image?... the one that is the white-yellowish background with the feather? It's is painfully bright when used in a dark room. I REALLY hate it. Thanks for help in advance. Note; I'm not talking about the Xfce splash screen, but the one that displays prior to loading Xfce. I don't know which component is responsible for that part of the bootup sequence.
Post #8 in that thread should work.

I'm not at home right now, but I believe the path is now /usr/share/plymouth/themes/liteboot/

The location has changed just to trick us all ;D
Code:
gksudo thunar /usr/share/plymouth/themes/liteboot/background.png
That's the one that has to be edited/replaced.
The rest of the steps are the same as the other post.
Edit: Yep, Jerry beat me to it 8)

My eyes thank you! ;D
Your eyes are welcome ;D
I changed mine a little while ago as well, in Gimp I went Colours > Invert, made it a nice deep blue.
Please mark as Solved if fixed.

I tried this solution but it only changes the image on shutdown.
On boot it is still the same bright image ???
edit: forget it. I did't update the initramfs ;D

Same here. I replaced that background.png file and it had no effect at boot up. thoughts?

Code:
sudo update-initramfs -u
