Its an old TNT that Nvidia has drivers posted for. Even when I can shut down gdm, there is still that Nouveau thing running (from ramdisk?) I have about given up. I'm pretty much a linux newbie, but understand some of the basics. Was hoping to get OpenGL working to install the latest version

Nvidia only releases proprietary drivers. And Trisquel is about only using free software. So, these two are incompatible. We GNU/Linux users don't generally worry about drivers as all drivers are included in the Linux kernel and we don't have to go hunting them on the web like on certain

Has anybody got any of these to actually work? I want to boot to terminal to install video drivers and cannot get these to work for me. I even tried to get recovery console at boot by uncommenting GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY=true and can't seem to get there. Yes I did sudo update-grub afterwords.

Try adding in front of the kernel line (on the grub file) to add the number 3 since it is the runlevel 3 (for multiuser text mode).

Shouldn't you simply be able to edit /etc/default/grub and change the line that reads GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=quiet splash to simply text then update grub? This is what I've been able to do in Trisquel 4.0 and Trisquel 5.0.

Hello everybody! I have a question, how to boot in terminal without starting gdm, x11 on 5.5 version? I do not want to delete gdm or X, just would like to add or change some parameters to GRUB or other place to boot only in terminal and if I need X I always can startx. I have tried:

Looks like you need to edit /etc/init/gdm.conf and change the startup on line which reads [!06] to [!026] so the default runlevel 2 is also omitted. If you then want to start gdm use sudo service gdm start.

You could also mess with this file: /etc/X11/default-display-manager It might be nicer than moving the gdm.conf file.
