As an aside, on my system X shows up on Alt-F9. I have no idea why

Hi.
Debian starts by default in runlevel 2 (if you didn't modify the
inittab file), so go to /etc/rc2.d and erase or rename the symbolic

screen. How can I configure which login screen will
appear (text mode or graphic with display manager)?
