I am trying to convert an Xwindow machine into a text mode one. So, that when I login, I go to the Text mode. And then use startx, whenever I wish to do so, to go to Xwindows. I have made two changes to /etc/inittab One is the default line, where I changed runlevel 5 to 3. Then in the end the respawn line, where I changed runlevel 5 to 3. But, still my machine logs into Xwindows. I thought, there might be some command in system-wide profile file or somewhere. So, I renamed the startx command. But it still did not work. I did not try renaming xdm and xinit. My machine still boots into Xwindows mode. Could someone, tell me, why my machine is not booting into a text mode, when I have changed the inittabe file. thanks. bye shiraz __________________________________ Yahoo!
