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,
Zombie13.

if you actually want to boot to a command prompt, rather than the full X window system, edit your /etc/inittab file and change the line that reads -

to -
