Boot to Consolecal
Thu, 08/22/2013 - 23:53
Anyone know how to book directly to console and not have the gdm or lightdm graphical login load? I tried removing gdm from init.d via:
sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove
But the dm still booted.

Yeah, that's how you'd expect it to work but Trisquel uses gdm. And upstart with its fancy dependency based start.
This means you'll have to edit /etc/init/gdm.conf.
Change the and runlevel [!06] to and runlevel [!026]. So it will add 2 which is the default runlevel to the runlevels to not run on.
Then boot.
Now if you'd like it to autologin for you, I believe you need to install and configure another getty, like mingetty or rungetty.
