Remove Boot Text On The Raspberry Pi For Noobs

Today I read Remove Boot Text On The Raspberry Pi For Noobs:

vim /boot/cmdline.txt

You will see a single line with all the boot options. Scroll along and change the following making sure not to add any linebreaks:

  • Replace console=tty1 to console=tty3 to redirect boot messages to the third console.
  • Add loglevel=3 to disable non-critical kernel log messages.
  • Add logo.nologo to the end of the line to remove the Raspberry PI logos from displaying
vim /boot/config.txt
  • add disable_splash=1 at the end of the file.

DRI3

Today I was reading How to Install The Latest AMD Radeon Drivers on Ubuntu 18.04 Bionic Beaver Linux wherein I read that “[enabling] DRI3 will increase graphical performance with the AMDGPU drivers”. You can read about DRI3 but the bottom line was to add the following to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file:

Section "Device"
  Identifier "AMDGPU"
  Driver "amdgpu"
  Option "AccelMethod" "glamor"
  Option "DRI" "3"
EndSection
