The instruction from Aby happen to be totally incorrect for Debian. Debian does not use runlevels to control the GUI/window stuff. In Debian, GUI is started in a couple of ways: 1) when you want, without rebooting by typing the startx command. 2) by installing and configuring a 'display manager'.

You probably have the XDM package installed, which defaults your system to starting an X server and running XDM for you. On Thu, 5 Aug 1999, Daniel Yang wrote: > When my Linux boots, it starts X window automatically. I don't know how to > stop it. > Thanks > Daniel > +---

If you remove the package 'xdm' it will have to stop doing that. I'm not sure it that's the recommended way or not. Or you could hit Ctrl-Alt-F1 when X it starts. That leaves X running, but switches you to another virtual terminal that is not running X. On Thu, 5 Aug 1999, Daniel Yang wrote:
