21.6 The Graphical SUSE Screen

Since SUSE Linux 7.2, the graphical SUSE screen is displayed on the first console if
the option "vga=<value>" is used as a kernel parameter. If you install using YaST, this
option is automatically activated in accordance with the selected resolution and the
graphics card. There are three ways to disable the SUSE screen, if desired:
Disabling the SUSE Screen When Necessary
Enter the command echo 0 >/proc/splash on the command line to disable
the graphical screen. To activate it again, enter echo 1 >/proc/splash.
