[SOLVED] Change Sugar Boot Screen

[jsandys]

What is the graphic progress program that runs between the grub screen and the login screen? Someone must know.

After installing the Sugar package on fedora 16, the boot screen changed from fedora icon filling to the Sugar dot clock.

How can I change the boot screen back to the regular fedora icon filling?

After deleting the Sugar package the Sugar dot clock progress remains.

If I can't switch back to the original, can I change to the old bar filling at the bottom of the screen or the old fashion scrolling text?
the sugar boot screen is really bright and annoying.

Thanks,
Jeff

The boot screen is controlled by plymouth and can be changed with plymouth-set-default-theme. Here is how I did it:

$ plymouth-set-default-theme
sugar
$ plymouth-set-default-theme --list
charge
details
sugar
text
$ sudo plymouth-set-default-theme charge
$ sudo plymouth-set-default-theme --rebuild-initrd charge

"charge" is the default start-up screen, the filling fedora logo. The rebuild-initrd takes a while. The next time you reboot you will see the current kernel listed twice in grub, the one at the top uses the "charge" start-up screen.
