About gdm3

2011-11-16 Thread Francesco Pietra
Hello
With my i386 wheezy desktop I had the surprise of gdm3 display
manager, whereby now the X server is started automatically, without

startx

gnome-session.


 How should I manage not to have the same situation with one of my
cpu-gpu servers? It  is usually used for chemical computations from
the console, while there is also a dormant X server to be used
occasionally with a gpu-enabled graphic program. The X server has not
to be started in order that the cpu-gpu calculation can be run.

thanks

francesco pietra

Fwd: About gdm3

2011-11-16 Thread Francesco Pietra
I forgot to say  that the server is amd64 wheezy (not a stable version
because of the need of recent drivers for the gpu boards).

You can uninstall gdm3.

apt-get remove gdm3

Then it won't do that anymore and you can still use startx and such as
you are used to.

You can tell Debian not to start gdm3 ( or kdm etc..)  via sysv. I use the sysv-rc-conf package to 
control what starts.
