The preferred method for this is to set initdefault to 3. Look in /etc/inittab for this line: id:5:initdefault: Change the 5 to a 3. As root, you can change runlevel to 3 by issuing "telinit 3". If xdm still starts, check /etc/rc3.d for an xdm entry, and remove it if present. Regards Peter. -- Peter Whysall [EMAIL PROTECTED] The TLD in my email address is sdrawkcab.
