Ok that works
I had to edit /boot/lua/drawer.lua to get the devil-pitchfork back, otherwise just have devilhead.

drawer.default_color_logodef = 'orb'
drawer.default_bw_logodef = ‘orbbw'

to:

drawer.default_color_logodef = 'beastie'
drawer.default_bw_logodef = ‘beastiebw'

and it’s pretty much the same as the 4th menu i had before.
Is there a way to put:

drawer.default_color_logodef = 'beastie'
drawer.default_bw_logodef = 'beastiebw'

somewhere else ie loader.rc or loader.lua.local so I don’t have to edit the /boot/lua/drawer.lua everytime I rebuild world?
It doesn’t work to put in loader.conf.local
Thanks
Manfred
