Linux Lite 2.8 Suggestion Thread

[firenice03]

This might be a minor issue, and just a cosmetic one. The GRUB bootloader looks plain with its default colors. Is there a way to put in the default wallpaper as a background by default on first install when grub pops up?

I had the default blue and white - modified grub to be black and white..
The original code:

Code:

GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -d 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`

Which should output: Description: Linux Lite 2.6
Modified the line to:

Code:

GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`

Output: Ubuntu

Which should change to black and white theme...

Don't forget to

Code:

sudo update-grub

This was an easy way to set to the black and white theme (LL2.2 may have been set this way)

If you look at the "05_debian_theme" file in /etc/grub.d/ it goes into more detail of themes and backgrounds...

If anything its a place to start...

**UPDATE - may have given half info - I looked at the system I updated closer...
Additionally - if you prefer

Code:

GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -d -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`

Output:
LinuxLite 2.6
Which again maybe whats being coded

Modify the "05_debian_theme" file from

Code:

        Tanglu|Ubuntu|Kubuntu)

to

Code:

        Tanglu|Ubuntu|"Linux Lite 2.6"|Kubuntu)

Linux Lite 2.6  will be added as acceptable output for the black and white theme..

Code:

sudo update-grub

and Reboot
