I installed Debian 3.0 not too long ago. Changed source from stable to testing, did an apt-get update and upgrade. Decided to get XFree86 so I did an "apt-get install x-window-system". This installed XDM. Don't really care too much for XDM and would either like to remove it or at least install either GDM or KDM in its place.
How do I go about removing XDM? When I start Debian, it imediately goes to the graphical log in screen. If I go to xterm and issue an apt-get remove XDM, will that mess things up as I am basically runing XDM when I issue that command? (Hope that makes sense.)
Or, is it easier to apt-get KDM (for example), have debconf configure the system for its use then apt-get remove XDM. Either way, I think I want XDM off the system.
As you can probably tell, I am somewhat new to this. Any suggestions on how to go about removing XDM would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
