X and Fluxbox :: Bypass x start



Hi, it's me again (the linux noobie)

Now i am looking for a way to disable the ms windows like desktop you get when you are running DLS hd installed for the first time (X-'something')

i have been browsing these forums for a few houres now and i found so many files i could edit i dont know wich i should edit :s

If someone could just tell me wich file and wich line of that file i need to remove to just keep this in text mode :s or can i leave all files intact and run in dsl 2 or something like on the livedisk?

in the /etc/inttab file change the line that says id:5:initdefault to id:3:initdefault
Thank you very much for your fast reply (k)
actually that might not do it.  In DSL init5 (the default) takes you into text mode.  However, there is a "startx" command in .bash_profile that starts up the graphical interface automatically when you log in.  So removing this command from .bash_profile will do what you want.

Euhm thats not true :s (in DSL 1.1) i am looking at .bash_profile now and i dont see a startx command I see a RUNLEVEL=, an if, a then, a cd, an export, a while, a do, a su - dsl, a done and a fi but no startx command  ???
