Besides, Debian GNU/Linux automatically starts the X server at boot time also gave me a headache.

take the symlink for xdm, kdm, gdm (any of these) out of your runlevel 2
area (/etc/rc2.d/).  I like to create a disabled directory under there
and move them in - makes them easy to "activate" by moving them up a level
again, and the word "disabled" doesn't start with an S or a K and confuse
anything.

Thanks, this trick does it. Probably Debian GNU/Linux can adopt the same strategy as used in Red Hat and ask the user whether to boot the system in X-windows mode or not, even when the X-windows works.

I'm try to see whether your conf file works for me soon!

Thanks!
