Ubuntu 12 Disable GUI


If you have ubuntu desktop but want to switch back into booting into a gui-less mode then simply run the following command.


echo "manual" | sudo tee -a /etc/init/lightdm.override

Now reboot and you will boot into a console rather than a GUI.

To get your gui back, simply run the command:

sudo lightdm

To revert this change and automatically boot into a GUI in future, simply run this command

sudo rm /etc/init/lightdm.override

Ubuntu Disable Apport to get rid of the annoying crash reports

Ubuntu Disable Apport to get rid of the annoying crash reports


Apport is an automatic crash reporting tool in Ubuntu that is mainly useful in the development cycle. You can read more about it here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Apport

With both the upgrade and the fresh install of Ubuntu 13.10 things got out of hand as I had about 8 crash reports on each boot. As things worked fine otherwise, I decided to disable the error popups.

In the terminal type:

 sudo gedit /etc/default/apport 

Set the value of enabled from 1 to 0, save the file and you are done.
