How do I stop displaying "warranties" notice when logging in on tty1 console
Solution 1:
The text you are looking for is inside
/etc/legal
The programs included with the Ubuntu system are free software;
the exact distribution terms for each program are described in the
individual files in /usr/share/doc/*/copyright.
Ubuntu comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by
applicable law.
Before you start editing this: as far as I know this is shown ONCE per user logging in. When there is a file
~/.cache/motd.legal-displayed
it will NOT be shown. So just create that and it will be gone. Easiest method is to execute this command:
touch ~/.cache/motd.legal-displayed
If you want to add your own messages you can add a file to
/etc/update-motd/
Currently it will hold:
00-header 90-updates-available 98-fsck-at-reboot
10-help-text 91-release-upgrade 98-reboot-required
The file names are executed in alphabetical order and their name sort of states what it shows. 00-header is the "Welcome..." text. 10-help-text shows the URL to the Ubuntu documentation etc.
