Interestingly, I just stumbled accross this again, while updating |
| 16 |
config files. After reading the code, I'd say the above is not correct |
| 17 |
(at least not on ~x86 with bl2/openrc). Here it works like this: |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
There's /etc/init.d/xdm-setup, which checks for "nox" and touches |
| 20 |
(creates) a flag file /etc/.noxdm. When /etc/.noxdm exists, |
| 21 |
/etc/init.d/xdm doesn't start the display manager. So it's sufficient |
| 22 |
to remove the flag file to be able to start X. |
