Assuming it is gdm that is giving you grief ... if you want to keep it installed, but not activate it at startup mv /etc/rc2.d/S99gdm /etc/rc2.d/K01gdm then if you decide you want to fire up a graphical login, as root run telinit 3 then to go back to colsole only telinit 2 uninstalling also works, but then you dont have the graphical option later cheers Blake Swadling Senior Software Engineer Newton Pty Ltd Telephone: +61 2 6247 3544 Fax: +61 2 6247 3533 Mobile: +61 407 026277 Web: http://www.newton.com.au
