Re: x and console runlevels

It's really quite easy. By default Debian boots to runlevel 2, and xdm (or gdm, wdm, whatever is installed) is started at each runlevel. If you want, for example, xdm to not start at runlevel 2, just remove /etc/rc2.d/S99xdm. Booting (or merely switching) to runlevel 3, 4, or 5 will start xdm.

That would be cool. I couldn't figure it out either, so I just ctrl-c to the cli console and removed xdm with: apt-get remove xdm Then I booted again. X still doesn't work on my laptop. Mario Gergely Nagy wrote: > Hi! > > I want to be able to eather boot to the console or xdm (gdm). Under
