Re: XDM
a simple solution to prevent xdm from starting everytime you boot is to
remove xdm from /etc/rc2.d. See, whenever linux boots it runs a script that
causes the files in /etc/rcN.d where N is a number between 1 and 6 (called
runlevels). Debian is set to runlevel 2 by default so by removing xdm from
the directory executed in runlevel 2 you stop xdm from running at startup.
This is a pretty crude way of doing it compared to some stuff that was
discussed earlier this week, but its what i did and it works fine.
(yea, that's exactly the same e-mail i sent earlier, but it applies here too,
i think:)
