Re: X11 & 10.20

It depends on how you start X.

If you start it with inittab, you will find an entry in /etc/inittab, corresponding to a particular runlevel. You can stop it by commenting the line, or setting initdefault to another value. Tipically, X should be started in runlevel 4, so putting 3 as a default runlevel will prevent starting X at boot time.

If you start X with an init script in /sbin/init.d (a trace should be seen in /etc/rc.log), then a config script should be found in /etc/rc.config.d where you can disable X start.

Regards,

Fred

Re: X11 & 10.20

usually this should be /sbin/init.d/dtlogin and /etc/rc.config.d/dtlogin :)

Hi,

# /usr/dt/bin/dtconfig -d

Check the manual page of dtconfig.
