X and runlevels
(Sorry if this has been discussed earlier, and/or this is the wrong list...) How come Debian don't have a "non-X" runlevel, like some other distributions, in the default configuration? I think this would be pretty convenient. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

But whenever you install something that gets you a display manager, your system will boot up in X. To get it to boot up in console mode, you have to manually remove the symlinks in your runlevel's script directory. The next time you update the display manager, you'll have to do this again. It is not really convenient. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The reason I ask is because I've been having this exact problem with gpm lately. I like to start it occasionally, because it interfers with my X configuration, so I use to remove the symlinks. Each and every time gpm is updated (two times the last week), they have been brought back to life. Pretty annoying, if you ask me.

Re: X and runlevels

Sorry, I didn't know about that "feature" of update-rc.d. In fact, I think it could be argued that the postinst shouldn't recreate the links if the package was already installed. I mean, if they have been removed, it must be for a reason, right? But maybe a postinst script can't detect whether the package was already installed in a clean way? I don't know...

Yes, the sysctl thing from the Wiki page is exactly the same method I'm using.

Yeah, I read the idea about module aliases as well, but it seems pointless since IPv6 isn't a module on my system (using the 2.6.32-3-amd64 kernel from squeeze). It's interesting however that you say that you expect it to work with IPv4 even though it has only bound the ipv6 socket. I guess you could be right (depending on how the actual ipv4-to-ipv6 stuff works...). In my case however, I can't get a working XMDCP login screen so I'm suspecting this is the problem.

OK, that's interesting... Just for the sake of it, I even tried enabling the bindv6only (net.ipv6.bindv6only=1) setting, to see if it would make any difference.

You were right - thanks! It turned out that I needed to modify the /etc/X11/xdm/Xaccess file to be able to give the client the right to use the login daemon...
