To change the standard Plymouth theme open a terminal and run the command:
<pre class="code">sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth</pre>
You will see an output similar to (but not exactly like) this:
<pre class="code">sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth
There are 3 choices for the alternative default.plymouth (providing /lib/plymouth/themes/default.plymouth).
Selection Path Priority Status
------------------------------------------------------------
0 /lib/plymouth/themes/kubuntu-logo/kubuntu-logo.plymouth 150 auto mode
1 /lib/plymouth/themes/bodhi-text/bodhi-text.plymouth 10 manual mode
* 2 /lib/plymouth/themes/bodhi-theme/bodhi-theme.plymouth 10 manual mode
3 /lib/plymouth/themes/kubuntu-logo/kubuntu-logo.plymouth 150 manual mode
Press enter to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number:</pre>
Select the number of the theme you would like to change to and then press the <strong>enter</strong> key.
Then run the command:
<pre class="code">sudo update-initramfs -u</pre>
<strong>Changing Text Plymouth</strong>
You can change the fallback/text plymouth splash by following the same process detailed above with the name <strong>text.plymouth</strong> instead of <strong>default.plymouth</strong>
