| erUSUL | what is the correct way to disable gdm starting (Xserver) on boot. what is the equivalent of « sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove » ?? found this http://ubuntu-ky.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1322949 | 14:09 |
|---|---|---|
| erUSUL | but it is way to hacky | 14:09 |
| erUSUL | s/to/too/ | 14:09 |
| ion | Comment out the ’start on’ stanza. | 14:15 |
| erUSUL | ion: that's what the forum entry says... but that's too hacky isn't it ? | 14:16 |
| ion | Or make /etc/X11/default-display-manager an empty file | 14:16 |
| ion | What’s hacky about it? | 14:16 |
| erUSUL | ion: directly editing long conf files ;) | 14:16 |
| ion | That’s how you configure stuff. :-P | 14:17 |
| erUSUL | ion: ok; there si no "good" way yet.. i spected someting like: | 14:17 |
| erUSUL | sudo upstart-config disable [options] [service_name] | 14:18 |
| erUSUL | or the like | 14:18 |
| ion | And what would that do? It would change the configuration somewhere. | 14:19 |
| plautrba | or it could rename job file to not end with .conf | 14:19 |
| erUSUL | plautrba: that would suffice ? that's less hacky in my book | 14:19 |
| erUSUL | plautrba: just sudo mv /etc/init/gdm.conf /etc/init/gdm.conf.disabled | 14:20 |
| plautrba | erUSUL: but you won't be able start that job even manually | 14:20 |
| erUSUL | that's way more palatable for me | 14:20 |
| erUSUL | ouch!!! | 14:20 |
| ion | Why not just uninstall gdm if you don’t want it? | 14:20 |
| erUSUL | that's not the question. you may want to disable a service for many reasons... what when apache is managed by upstart? you wont be able to disable it starting at boot ? your only option will be to remove it? | 14:22 |
| ion | Comment out the ‘start on’ stanza. | 14:22 |
| erUSUL | ok; | 14:22 |
| erUSUL | fair enough. | 14:23 |
| erUSUL | thanks for all the help. have anice day | 14:23 |

| sadmac2 | I thought someone just handed me a new high-severity issue 1/2 hour before I leave work. | 21:33 |
| sadmac2 | moment of rage | 21:33 |
| ion | Work on it for ½ hours and let someone else finish it. ;-) | 21:34 |
| sadmac2 | I actually do have one that needs to be handed to australia before I can finally stop working today | 21:34 |
| Keybuk | hmm | 21:50 |
