Need to stop KDE from auto-loading at boot.

Just a quick question - how can I stop KDE from loading at boot? Basically, a system that was set up to always boot KDE at startup, how do I change that so that KDE doesn't automatically start, but is still available if I want to run it from the CLI.

Cheers,

Change in /etc/inittab the default runlevel from 5 to 3:

Code:

# The default runlevel is defined here
id:3:initdefault:

EDIT: Better report this to a moderator and ask for moving. Otherwise you are double-posting, which is not appreciated.

Thanks for that, I've reported it to a mod. I can be a dumb-ass at times.

I'll just close this one, there is really no need to move it where another identical thread already exists.

Thanks for the report, and for the understanding of why this generally should not be done.

Cool
