I do so little on my linux server that requires a gui, x-server and gnome/kde, etc, that I decided to lighten the load and get rid of it all. Mythtv, nfs, samba, printer sharing, webserver, postgresql, ruby on rails and everything else I have is still running. I can get away with this mostly because of my two Macs.

Does anyone else do this or anything like this? Details are encouraged!

On my servers I install my preferred UI and window manager (KDE) but I don't enable it by default. So essentially the system runs in text mode. However, I enable remote VNC administration in YasT (SuSE Rules) and then when I want to login remotely, I can. And I can work using the GUI tools. Even when I do CLI stuff, I prefer to have a WM running since I can for example run 4 or 5 xterm of Konsole windows simultaneously on the same screen. More productive. When I log out, the WM and X unload, and the resources they used are freed up. No loss.
