An old problem arises again: the order init 3 does not cut gdm (more exactly gdm3; now I don't use lightdm).
I've also tried these orders

      Code:
/etc/init.d/gdm3 stop
update-rc.d gdm3 start 05 5 . stop 01 1 2 3 4 6
update-rc.d gdm3 disable 2 3 4
update-rc.d gdm3 remove
update-rc.d gdm3 defaults

without success.

More info:
      Code:

# infobash -v3

# who -r
         `run-level' 3 2014-05-02 19:04                   último=5

This last after "init 3".


Any help will be appreciated.

The following should work:
      Code:
# dpkg-reconfigure distro-defaults
# update-rc.d -f gdm3
# update-rc.d gdm3 defaults

Hardcoding init sequence numbers has been ignored since lenny, in favour of (only) relying on LSB dependencies instead. Insserv overrides are, for now (until systemd takes over), the weapon of choice to modify dæmon loading.

Thanks for your quick reply. However an error message appears:
      Code:

# update-rc.d -f gdm3
update-rc.d: error: not enough arguments
usage: update-rc.d [-n] [-f] <basename> remove
       update-rc.d [-n] <basename> disable|enable [S|2|3|4|5]
      -n: not really
      -f: force

The disable|enable API is not stable and might change in the future.

(The others orders went fine)
And, worst of all, Ctrl+Alt+F7 (having done previously init 3) shows again my Xfce wallpaper.Sad

Something else?

Ooops, I missed the proper keyword - "update-rc.d -f gdm3 remove" - don't forget to run the last command afterwards again.

I've corrected the missing order, ran "update-rc.d gdm3 defaults", and Ctrl+Alt+F7 after init 3 shows again the wallpaper.

I push up this thread because it has not been solved and now, doing apt-get -s dist-upgrade, I can see a lot of new X-server packages want to be installed.

All the slh's advices have been followed with no success.

Best regards.
