Possible to Remove the GUI ?

[Youkai]

Is it possible to uninstall/remove the GUI ?
after I set up everything I don't need the GUI any more as I can just access the configuration page on another computer so for stability issues and stuff I'd like to remove the GUI (the place I just installed Zentyal doesn't want any GUI but I am not able to set up a Linux server only within the terminal ^^V

Would be sufficient if it would be possible to just take it out of the system start.

You could try changing the boot options in grub so that it boots to a text-only interface, that should fix your problem;

edit /etc/default/grub

Code: [Select]

sudo nano /etc/default/grubchange the line

Code: [Select]

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"to

Code: [Select]

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash text"

Code: [Select]

sudo update-grubreboot.

Then when you reboot, the GUI shouldn't start up. If you need the GUI, type

Code: [Select]

startx to initiate an X Desktop session. If that doesn't work, try

Code: [Select]

sudo service gdm start
