Re: stop bringing up X window when Linux booting
The instruction from Aby happen to be totally incorrect for Debian.
Debian does not use runlevels to control the GUI/window stuff. In
Debian, GUI is started in a couple of ways:
1) when you want, without rebooting by typing the startx command.
2) by installing and configuring a 'display manager'.
Available display managers are gdm, kdm, xdm, and one other,
I think.
Also, you can install a display manager and get it running
*without* rebooting.
