Yo, If you reconfigure your display settings in Mandrake Control Center, it will ask you if you want to start X after boot up. Just tell it no. If that don't work, just delete the start-up script in the appropriate runnlevel. Usually it's runnlevel 5, on mien it's rc5.d/S30dm for display manager. Hope that helps.
