Re: [PLUG] X server bpp 8


Also, you can boot into runlevel 3 (change initdefault line in /etc/inittab from "5" to "3"). Then you can use "startx" to start X windows when you want to (mimicking Dos/Win 3.1).

You can then reverse engineer the startx script if you want.

Am I missing something here, why not just <Ctrl><Alt><F6> and move to the one command line tty available without messing with the runlevels?


I personally use runlevel 3, but then I start KDM, which leaves me with six tty's to play with, and I still have a GUI.
