Debian starts the GUI login, if one is installed, in all multi user
run levels. What you need to do is go to /etc/rc3.d/ and move the
Snnxxx link to Knnxxx where nn is a numeral, and xxx is the name of
your installed login manager. 

For example, if your GUI login is gdm, move S99gdm to K99gdm. You may
want to reduce 99 to a lower value if you want gdm to be shut down
earlier when you switch to runlevel 3 from some other level that has
gdm running.
