    how do i change the plymouth theme in 10.04?

    just what the title says. i installed a theme from synaptic, but it has no effect. for those of you who don't know, plymouth is the program that shows the boot screen.
    I dont use linux because its free, im free because i use linux!

    After installing from Synaptic. Enter in the terminal:

    sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth

    A list will appear from which you can choose your theme.

    After that enter in terminal:

    sudo update-initramfs -u
    Restart your comp and the theme should have changed.
