A friend has installed Xubuntu 10.04 on a low-power server and wants to disable the graphical boot. I've mostly managed to sort that be editing /etc/default/grub, but irritatingly it still seems to leave the console on VC7 when booting finishes whereas he'd like it to be on VC1 where he'll get a text login prompt. Anyone know how to make that happen? James
I can't remember exactly but IIRC you need to change the runlevel. I'm certain it's something like runlevel 5 for a graphical logon (where it runs GDM, or is it XDM?), or runlevel 3 for a text based login.
Doing a Google search for runlevels may help if no one else has already replied with the solution.
