Post subject:  Nvidia legacy drivers in 8.1 (self install, need to stop X)

Hi, I'm trying to setup 8.1 correctly on an older box that needs the legacy nvidia drivers. I've downloaded the drivers from nvidia, but can't figure out how to turn off the X server temporarily so that I can execute the installation.

Probably something simple that I just don't know. Any help appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks to cesman on the irc channel. sudo sv stop frontend was what I needed!
