    I just wish they would use another name for it, it’s linux here no need to copy windows slang! Or use another color! (I hope they’ll update it to make it a customizable color)

      Fun fact: The Windows BSOD colour was as easy as adding a couple of lines to a .INI file for a long time. Then, as they tend to do, they made it more difficult, but it was still possible. Third party tools were written to do the work.

      Very recent MS Windows I have no idea about. My search-fu is failing me.

      Anyway, my point is that the “two lines in a config file” method would be nice.

      Knowing systemd though, it’ll be “send some kind of message into a /proc pseudo-file”, or a sub-sub-sub-command of one of the many systemd* commands which ultimately does the same thing.

      Yeah, Linux should have taken the guru meditation from the Amiga! (I know VirtualBox already copied it mind you)
