The easiest way is to boot, then become root (or login as root), and then edit /etc/inittab. Look for a line that looks like this: id:5:initdefault: Notice the 5. That means boot into runlevel 5 which is the GUI (X11) runlevel. Change the 5 to a 3, like so: id:3:initdefault: This means boot into runlevel 3 which is the same as runlevel 5 but without the GUI (X11). > The meetings you guys meet, is it any other than weekends.

MOSLUG, StLLUG, SLUUG, SILUG, SLACC, AdvLUG, HWLUG, and just about every other group meets during weekday evenings. However, that doesn't mean that we can't e- mail the list and say "I've got this issue. Can anyone meet me and help me out with it?" When that happens we tend to go to a Bread Co. since they have food and wireless 'Net. Also, most of us are familiar with IRC or IM, which is another great way to get quick help, especially late at night or for quick questions during the day. If you have something you want to work on just e-mail your request to the list. BTW, at yesterday's meeting Scott talked about podcasting. Perhaps in the near future we might podcast the cwelug meetings ... edited, of course. ;) Regards, - Robert http://www.cwelug.org/downloads Help others get OpenSource software.
