As this forum on HTG is for Linux questions.</p> <p>@azizlp: Why do you want to change the default run level? It is my understanding that most of the time one doesn't need to mess with run levels in Ubuntu. </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/changing-run-level-in-ubuntu#post-6771 Mon, 07 Jan 2008 01:46:55 +0000 blastph3my 6771@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>I'm not sure. This forum mainly focuses on Windows-based problems. We'll help you while you can, but I'd personally suggest that you ask at <a href='www.ubuntuforums.org' rel="nofollow">www.ubuntuforums.org</a> . Almost every Ubuntu question I've had has been covered there, even questions specific to my laptop model. It's a great resource and a great community. Sorry I couldn't help you, and definitely check back to see if others can. </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/changing-run-level-in-ubuntu#post-6759 Sun, 06 Jan 2008 21:29:02 +0000 azizlp 6759@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>I would like to know how to change my default run level in ubuntu to another. somebody help please </p>
