If you don't want to add the logo.nologo option to the kernel parameters then a tput reset will also clear the penguins, as will running setfont. In fact, it's quite hard to get them to stay around. :)

Try adding the reset command into /etc/rc.d/rc.local; then the screen will be cleared at every boot without further intervention by you.

If your hardware has a BIOS default for a VGA console, then using "vga=normal" in your bootloader rather than specifying a framebuffer console will stop the logos from appearing.

Ah! Now I understand!
I had no idea what this thread was all about, since I have never seen any logo appear on boot.
So I went looking into my ‘/etc/lilo.conf’ and, lo and behold, it has the following:
Code:
# Normal VGA console
vga = normal
Mystery solved...

I kinda miss good old Tux ever since I switched to GRUB2. I never really bothered to learn any of the startup options, but I definetely am not seeing Tux anymore.

Example menuentry:

Code:
menuentry 'Slackware-14.2+ GNU/Linux' --class slackware_14_2_ --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'gnulinux-simple-ayyy' {
        load_video
        insmod gzio
        insmod part_gpt
        insmod ext2
        set root=''
        if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then
          search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root [ REDACTED ]
        else
          search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root [ REDACTED ]
        fi
        echo        'Loading Linux 4.19.25 ...'
        linux        /boot/vmlinuz-huge-4.19.25 root=ayyy ro 
}
I think I tried a graphicsmode with my old setup (recently upgraded this computer) but I think something was wonky with the proprietary nvidia driver, which is also a bit of a shame cause the VTT is at super low res.

Anyway, what can I try to add/remove to get Tux back?

Hi, do not tell me how to remove the picture in the upper left corner of the terminal? The operating system is quite serious, and here is some kind of kindergarten
Considering that most of the important things which happened in "IT" happened with "cute nicknames" and the like I would say if you're judging a project by it's name then you've more to worry about than "silly" names.
