Nvidia splash screen

I'm using Xfce and have the proprietary Nvidia driver installed. An Nvidia splash screen appears after starting X... can this be removed or disabled?

Many thanks.

Re: Nvidia splash screen

From Gentoo's wiki, found by a simple Google search:

Remove the nvidia splash screen

Normally when X starts with the nvidia drivers installed, a splash screen is shown. This can be removed by setting the NoLogo option to "true" as shown in the example below.
File: xorg.conf: Disable nvidia splash screen

 Section "Device"
  Identifier "GeForce2 Pro/GTS"
  Driver     "nvidia"
  VideoRam   65536
  Option     "NoLogo" "true"
 EndSection
