Hi everyone, im new at Artix but i have been using Arch since some years. I have 2 questions, first one is about how to disable the random famous quotes when you start up the terminal, and the second one it's if we have any way to install plymouth successfully over OpenRC or if we have any other alternative to plymouth.
Thanks for listen and i hope to read some answer about my doubts...
Random famous quotes? I figured that was fortune.
Try to delete any lines of it in your .bashrc or .bash_profile (if you're using bash, otherwise it should be your shell's respective rc/profile.)
Regarding plymouth, it is in my view a PITA, regardless if you use openrc or systemd.
That's the reason why we actually don't have plymouth by default.
Another reason is, as soon as you have an ssd or nvme, the box boots up pretty fast in a matter of few seconds, and plymouth is of no real use.
I prefer visible messages for service starts instead of hiding it, but there is a newer alternative to plymouth I can't actually remember its name atm. Iirc, its a new kernel feature or so.
I never got random famous quote with my install? I feel like im missing out now lol.
Can you share some of the quotes maybe?
The quotes are printed by
fortune, it's hiding in some bash init script.
Thanks so much everyone for helping and the quick answers. ;)
