In the distro I'm using runlevel 3 is the one you enter X automatically
from.  The best advice I can give is to look at /etc/inittab -- there
should be a list of the runlevels that looks something like this:

        # runlevel 0 is halt
        # runlevel S is single-user
        # runlevel 1 is multi-user without network
        # runlevel 2 is multi-user with network
        # runlevel 3 is multi-user with network and xdm
        # runlevel 6 is reboot

Your runlevels will be different unless you use the same distro I use. 
I hope that helps.  In my case, if I "telinit 2", X is gone.

In expanding on this, I mean only to add to what Beverly said -- not to
contradict her.  AFAIK it is runlevel 5 for X and 3 for no X in the
majority of distros.
