Would be neat :) > Should be easy for you to do locally and since the init scripts are > conffiles your mods will survive. I guess the suggestion was to set that up per default. Currently, all (most?) packages configure all runlevels the same, afaik. (I wonder why so many suggested using runlevel 2 for it?! Runlevel 2 is the default on Debian, and all DMs do run there.) > I do not see this being useful for most people. If they installed the dm > they probably want X. As I mentioned above, if you know there are > occasions when you want a minimal boot up, runlevels are a great solution. It would be nice for occasional no-X booting, e.g. for debugging. But then there's still single user mode for that, so "wasting" a whole runlevel for it doesn't seem so useful. The "nox" boot parameter seems much less intrusive. Who's going to file the wishlist bugs? Christoph -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.df7cb.de/
