Re: XDM / KDM problem...
Well, that is a bit extreme. don't worry about shutting down the X
server. when the tty on which the X server is running is active, you
can switch to other tty's by using Control-LeftAlt-Fx, where x is the
number of a different tty (presumably a text console).
in response to the original question, if you still don't want xdm to
start when the machine is booted, simply edit /etc/X11/config and
change the line which says 'start-xdm' to 'no-start-xdm' (or just
comment the darn thing out).
finally, i have no idea how to do change to kdm. sorry.
