Hi all, i installed the latest mandrake a earlier this week. When i boot the system into linux i get this grphical screen showing the progress of the boot. Does anyone know how to get rid of that? I find it to be kind of annoying, and want my regular console. Thanks, --brad

I think the package you want to remove is bootsplash. I'm pretty sure that's it, as Aurora was left out of 8.2 (thank god). Brian J. Conway bconway@wpi.edu "I don't think Microsoft is evil in itself. I just think that they make really crappy operating systems." - Linus Torvalds

you poor thing...USE DEBIAN! AH HA HA! j/k seriously, i believe the package you want to remove is called Aurora...i think. do a rpm -q for Aurora and see what comes up. good luck and remeber, who cares what flavor...linux, much like ice-cream...it's all good... peace -jeff
Thanks Brian and Jeff for the repsonses. I did remove bootsplash, and no more splash screen. Now when i boot up i don't see any kernel messages or and services start up. I only see message displayed when a service fails. Anyone now how to get my boot to display all the messages? so far the new mandrake 'features' have been somewhat annoying. Thanks, --brad
