Remove Tux from console

[bldrdash]

As cute as Tux is, he's kind of pesky when booting into init mode 2 (: knoppix 2) since less and man don't display right. Is there anyway to get rid of him?

Doesn't the Tux disappear during the boot process? If not, try

clear
or

reset

Btw, I am still looking for a way to disable the Tux altogether w/o recompiling the kernel.

Thanks for your hint, there is one that disables the framebuffer altogether, but I am looking for a way to disable the tux but still use the framebuffer.

Seems like the tux can be disabled in kernel 2.6.x by setting
CONFIG_LOGO_LINUX_CLUT224=n
in the kernel source configuration and then recompiling.
