Disable X Windows from console

[DoubleTea]

Helo, I've just installed armbian on an Orange Pi box and using it just for remote VPSs, any easy way to disable the X windows graphical interface from the console ? thanks

Well, the arg "disable doesn't exist:

root@keypi:~# htop
root@keypi:~# service nodm disable
Usage: /etc/init.d/nodm {start|stop|restart|force-reload}.

But the arg stop worked without any issues:

 

root@keypi:~# service nodm stop

Thx !

You are welcome. Check also /etc/default/nodm

Couldn't access previous account and created a new one. Thanks

I don't want X to start (on my Armbian Ubuntu), so in that file, I now have

 

NODM_ENABLED=false

 

... and X does not start. Great.
