    Remove Tux from console

    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
    Code:
    clear
    or
    Code:
    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.
