I want to boot a "Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS" server, but I want XFCE not to be started, nor X at all, only Shell.
How do I tell my server to boot to the shell, not running XFCE at all?
I have an SSH connection to the server, but no display connected.
Since I migrated from earlier versions I use GRUB 1, where no /etc/default/grub exists.
I would like to set the target runlevel somewhere, without changing GRUB at all.
When you ssh into the machine, don',t put the "X" flag. example "ssh username@localhost.edu" – None – 2011-07-14T18:33:04.487
In the meantime I found "sudo service gdm stop" and "sudo service gdm start" which goes to the right direction. But "gdm stop" should be the default. Or I install Ubuntu server. But then I cant change any more. A link was: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1305659
