If you don't need a login manager, run # apt-get remove gdm3 But I recommend to disable gdm3 by default by running # update-rc.d -f apache2 remove I do that with the help of the program rcconf, which shows you a nice list of services which can be enabled via the space key.

Re: Debian linux howto start in textmode
You need to reinstall debian if that sighted person left you the debian disk. When you do, listen for the cd to stop spinning and then type speakup swspeak and hit enter. You'll have speech come up talking you through the installation especially if that's a wheezy debian disk. Can be done with squeeze too.

Re: Debian linux howto start in textmode
Hello Claudio, It's somewhat off-topic, especially if you want to keep the version that was already installed on your computer, but I would like to point you to our ADRIANE project, which is Debian GNU/Linux preconfigured on a live CD, DVD or flash disk installation (which can also be transferred to harddisk as regular installation). ADRIANE starts directly into a talking text mode menu with optional braille support via sbl, speech-dispatcher and espeak. http://knopper.net/knoppix-adriane/index-en.html You can download the speech-enabled CD version from most of the Knoppix mirrors. It does not require an installation and runs best from a usb flash disk, but if you like, you can install it to harddisk, too. ADRIANE also supports starting xorg from the text menu with orca, if you need to use OpenOffice or firefox, but just for WWW, we use the javascript-enabled elinks browser in textmode, which is IMHO easier to navigate and faster than firefox with orca.

Re: Debian linux howto start in textmode
Hi, To disable graphical starting, remove or disable gdm3 as shown by other. So brltty will oun and you'll have in braille a text login prompt. To have speech at this time, do: # apt-get install espeakup In /etc/modules, add: speakup_soft Then you'll have the most part of the boot spoken. You can then disable speakup and load emacspeak or speech-el.
