    change boot animation background image "before" KDM comes up

    Hello :

    I was wondering where can I change the boot animation background image "before" KDM comes up and let us typing password.

    I already found where to change the following item :

    1.KDM background:/usr/share/wallpapers/Ariya/contents/images/
    2.Boot screen "after" typing password on KDM :
    3.Change the image file in usr/share/kde4/apps/ksplash/Themes/default/1920X1200
    4.Animation after shutdown computer :/lib/plymouth/themes/kubuntu-logo/

    And I thought I can change the boot animation background image "before" KDM comes up by cange the image in /lib/plymouth/themes/kubuntu-logo/, but it just change the anmation after shutdown.

    so I was wondering, what should I do to change the " boot animation background image before KDM comes up" ?

    Thank you for your time !

    Plymouth background

    Kubuntu boot:

    Grub "splash" -> Plymouth -> KDM or LightDM -> KSplashX or KplashQML


    Plymouth: http://www.kubuntuforums.net/showthr...Plymouth-theme


    Kubuntu 12.04 or newer:

    1) Change the /lib/plymouth/themes/kubuntu-logo/background.png



    2) Update the initramfs

    Code:
    sudo update-initramfs -u
    The Plymouth background should change... changing at here.


    If you want to test:

    Install the package: plymouth-x11

    Konsole #1
    Code:
    sudo plymouthd --debug --tty=`tty` --no-daemon
    Konsole #2
    Code:
    sudo plymouth show-splash
    There should be two test plymouth theme screens.
