Quick Guide to installing Ubuntu Unity on your Pinebook Pro
#7
Ok updates...

Wanted the boot screen to be less verbose (lots of white text!) and get back to having an Ubuntu Logo when logging in and out!

So followed these instructions from our Forum thanks to @aristocrat 

https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=8604



To keep the splashscreen from getting disabled on kernel update, open up /usr/local/sbin/update-extlinux.sh in your editor of choice and change line 50:
emit_kernel "$VERSION" "$APPEND"
to:
emit_kernel "$VERSION" "$APPEND quiet splash"
then save and run "sudo update-extlinux.sh"


and it works...mostly...nearly as good as my other devices

Coming next...getting rid of that damn login noise!

Well the login sound was hard and kind of easy to fix

After much searching and removing and replacement of files I deleted the login session.ogg in usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo

Only for it to be replaced by the next noise on the list!

So brute force was needed and I thought I never use sounds on a laptop unless I want to listen to my music so deleted ALL  the folders in usr/share/sounds  (I said it was brutal!) and it works

Silent as a silent thing booting up

See..
