Solution 1

I have found the command, because now the graphic manager is not Lightdm or KDM anymore. The new graphic manager is SDDM and the command to stop it is:

sudo systemctl stop sddm.service

Solution 2

You can use

sudo service sddm stop

(this worked better than the systemctl command for me - no freeze).

    In Kubuntu 14.04 and 14.10 I stop the X server with

    sudo /etc/init.d/lightdm stop
    

    but it don't works anymore. How to stop it, to install a graphic driver ?
