[SOLVED] ASCII Tux in Neofetch
Is there no longer a way to tweak the neofetch config to display Tux rather than the distro?

Re: [SOLVED] ASCII Tux in Neofetch
Jasnwyron: Yes, I can point to a file I download from somewhere or create. Apparently, however, there is no longer a Tux ascii file as part of neofetch, though there are still all the distro files. Is that your understanding?

Re: [SOLVED] ASCII Tux in Neofetch
I don't use neofetch, so I don't know. There was a branch that used tux as the default if the distro couldn't be detected, but I have no idea what the current state of the project is. In any event, it is simple enough to point it at a custom file.

Re: [SOLVED] ASCII Tux in Neofetch
You can display a tux by specifying an invalid linux distribution name.
You could use "tux" as it's not a recognized option.
neofetch --ascii_distro tuxIf your own config is interfering by still displaying the wrong ASCII, append --config=/dev/null or fix your config.
Give also "GNU" ASCII a try

Thanks, this was the solution I was seeking, Irets.
