If you don't want xdm at all, uninstall it. If you just don't want it to
start in the default runlevel, do:
  # cd /etc/rc2.d
  # mv S99xdm K01xdm

Repeat for any other runlevels you want to change. You could also use
update-rc.d, but moving the symlinks is a bit easier.


Someone posted to move the symlink into a user's home directory.  While
this would work, it's a suboptimal solution.
