X and Fluxbox :: booting into textmode instead of starting x
Is there any way to get dsl to not start any window manager and just stay in text mode? I don't have a screen hooked up to my computer, I just use it as an ftp box and remotely log into it using ssh when I need to do something on it. Any help would be appreciated.
Method 1: remove "startx" from /home/dsl/.bash_profile. This puts you into exactly the same environment you have now, except you aren't in X.
Method 2: boot with "dsl 2" boot parameter. This will log you in as root on four virtual terminals.
Method 3: http://damnsmalllinux.org/cgi-bin....;t=7936

This will give you text mode with no auto-login, like a "typical" unix system.
Thanks for the help. I figured there had to be a startx command somewhere but I couldn't find it.
Thanks again.
