abarbarian Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 I start up me pc with "startx" and noefetch shows the old style image shown in the last post. Whereas xterm shows the new style image from the last post. How do I get the new style image to show up when I boot up the pc before I log in with startx ?

You need to edit /etc/issue but you will probably not get those fancy graphics and summary from neofetch as /etc/issue is just a text document. You can get some cool looking ones though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

securitybreach Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 OK, it is possible but you need an additional systemd service: https://quoteme.github.io/posts/custom_loginprompt_linux Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried out a few including your present one and your old one. I went for the one in post 113 here, https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=50845&p=5 Not so keen on the green text so I may change that later on.

abarbarian Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 I had not realised there were so many different login managers. What is the best Linux Display Manager? This tbsm one is rather neat, useful if you use different WM/DE's, https://www.slant.co/topics/2053/viewpoints/16/~best-linux-display-manager~tbsm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
