How to replace Ubuntu logos & brand-marks in custom distro?


I was trying to create an ubuntu based distro in KDE and want to know that is there any way to replace kubuntu & ubuntu logos or brand marks ?

Like in kde startup menu has kubuntu's logo how can I replace all the similar logos?

And where all the logos are located in Ubuntu distro. Working on ubuntu & kubuntu 12.04.03


Solution

  • OK after searching through the Linux file system, i found few files (logos) which can be replaced to prevent copyright violation.

    All the files resides in

          /usr/share/icons &
          /usr/share/pixmaps
    

    File names to replace are (All files are in png or svg file format)

       start-here 
       distributor-logo
       ubuntu-logo 
    

    I will add more names if i will find in future. Also edit these files as per your requirements /etc/issues.net /etc/lsb-release /etc/issue

    but then you have to edit /usr/share/pyshared/aptsources/distro.py

    and assign values of original lsb-release file to variables like

           self.id="Ubuntu"
           self.codename="precise"
           self.description="Ubuntu 12.04.02 LTS"
           self.release= 12.04
    

    Thanks.
