Boot with no KDE?
Hi,
I have installed Debian linux on an unremarkable Pentium 4-class system. It
boots to the KDE.
Now, my nVidia GeForce 4 Ti 4200 is not recognized by KDE. It therefore
uses it as generic SVGA. This yields a maximum resolution which is quite
small and makes it impossible for me to use GIMP etc, because the dialog
boxes are bigger than the screen.
I have downloaded the nVidia drivers and I'm trying to install them, but of
course I need to exit kde to command line in order to do this. How do I
exit from kde to the command line? (Ctrl-Alt-F1 will not do this).
Secondly, how do I make my computer boot with no kde at all? My default
runlevel is 2, and in /etc/rc2.d I have:
S10sysklogd, S11klogd, S14ppp, S18portmap, S20exim4, S20fam, S20inetd,
S20makedev, S20mysql, S20slash, S89atd, S89cron, S91apache, S99gdm,
S99rmnologin, S99stop-bootlogd
Where is kde being started?
