Why not disable it in rc.X (or equivelent, if you're not using SysV-style). If you're not familiar with the way the symlinks there work, there are several utilities and documents to help. From some quick use of apt-cache search: gnome-system-tools - Cross-platform configuration utilities for GNOME ksysv - KDE SysV-style init configuration editor rcconf - Debian Runlevel configuration tool sysvconfig - A text menu based utility for configuring init script links sysv-rc-conf - SysV init runlevel configuration tool for the terminal newbiedoc - Documentation by and for newbies [note: I'm not the maintainer, just another interested user.] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
