Hello, Occasionally I install a Debian package that I do not want to start everytime I boot. In this situation, I usually use update-rc.d and either stick the init script into a specific runlevelor just remove it from all runlevels.This works fine, however, when I do an upgrade,any packages that are upgraded will put the symlinks back and I will have to remember touse update-rc.d on each package that was upgraded.
I did following: put in the "to deactivate"-skript the 1st line "exit 0". When I was playing with my X-config, I put"test -e kdm.deactivated && exit 0" into /etc/init.d/kdm, so if I want to deactivate kdm, I have to "touch /init.d/kdm.deactivated", to reactivate it, just rm it.
