    Hi there,

    I think this thread is pretty self-explanatory. Actually, I want to
    install the binary nVidia drivers, and they require me to shut down the
    X server. Unfortunately, when using the ctrl-alt-backspace interrupt, X
    instantly respawns.

    Where is this configured? I looked through the /etc/initrc file, and
    didn't find anything relevant to X.

    Actually, I might as well ask if there's any way to configure two
    separate runlevels that are exactly identical, save the fact that one
    runs without X (ā la Mandrakelinux).

    Thanks in advance,
    //Markus
