stopping xbmc without killing the x server - d_schrute - 2010-10-26 hello to everyone i'm a bit of a linux new, so if this quesion is stupid please bear with me. im running xbmc dharma 3 on 9.10 ubuntu minimal install. i originally had install 9.11 live using the xci script, but then upgraded to dharma. i was wondering if i was possible to quit just xbmc using: Code: killall xbmc.bin the command works fine it just kills the x server and boots me straight into the login prompt. like i said if this question seems dumb, i deeply apologize, but any help would be greatly appreciated, D. - vikjon0 - 2010-10-26 I assume you are asking because you need xorg for something? When you hit the prompt, login and type startx and press enter. If you have a window manager this will bring it ip. If not install one sudo apt-get install fluxbox. or sudo apt-get intall gnome-core |
