Opposite command to startx?

(1/1)

jur:
Is there a command to stop X? Such as exittc seems to be doing when selecting exit to prompt?

maro:
How about the rather "brutal" killall Xvesa (or killall Xorg)? It works for me , but you are also running the risk of loosing other processes (e.g. xterms etc.).

jur:
Thanks, I'll try that.

curaga:
IIRC X shuts down "gracefully" when nothing runs on it, ie the wm is killed. I almost never bother though, I just use ctrl-alt-backspace ;)
