Oh, I should have warned you, don't do this from X, instead ssh in from some
other machine. You'll know you've done this right when you don't see gdm
start on the server since we're disabling X on :0. Your server will have to
run headless unless you specify a custom server for :1 under the [servers]
section. If you get a message about X not able to start, try making the sym
link I replied with earlier.
