Question : Desktop on Ubuntu
Hello
I am running Ubuntu 10.04 with command line Interface. I want to install Desktop environment but want that the server should not automatically boot to the Desktop (GUI) interface. The GUi should open only when I need it and closed after I finish my GUI work.
I know the desktop can be installed with sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
But It as I mentioned it should not automatically start in GUI mode. And I should have a command to close the GUI mode when I don't need it.
Answer : Desktop on Ubuntu
sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove - to boot default from command line
$sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop - > to go back to command line if you r in GUI.
