The Bitcoin software, network, and concept is called "Bitcoin" with a capitalized "B". Bitcoin currency units are called "bitcoins" with a lowercase "b" -- this is often abbreviated BTC.

There are several ways.
If you want, you can just remove the entire xserver (package xserver-xorg).
Another way, if you want to keep X installed, is to go to /etc/init.d, and move the files "gdm" and "xorg-common" somewhere else.
Edit: If you're mining with an ATI card, you need the xserver running to mine. In that case, you might want to simply replace GNOME with a more lightweight alternative.

Yeah, Nvidia has a set of special scripts that let you run CUDA stuff without the xserver, but for ATI it has to be running. If you just want a more lightweight desktop you could try running LXDE or even just openbox on its own (which is what I do). If you still want to not start the Xserver at boot, go to /etc/init.d, and move the files "gdm" and "xorg-common" somewhere else. If you do this, you can still start the xserver by running "startx".

Modify the default runlevel in /etc/inittab if you're using init. If you're using systemd, change the default target link in /etc/systemd/system
Normally, runlevel 1 is single user mode, 3 is full multi-user, and 5 is multi-user with GUI. So you should change 5 to 3.

Ubuntu switched to upstart recently (they used to use inittab). Anyway, their runlevels were always messed up even when they used inittab - 1 was single user mode, 2 and up were multi-user w/ X. Anyway, this got me thinking that the easiest way to disable X would probably be to modify the kernel options passed by GRUB. In /etc/default/grub, there's a line like: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" replace it with: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash text" and then run: Then, at any time, you can simply run startx if you'd like to run X.

another question...
when I'm on ssh and start the miner, how can I get the screen again after close and open again?
for example:
I open ssh now and run some random miner, and then exits...
later the same day, I want to see how things are going, how can I open again and see the hashes? (echos/prints from the previous session)
Already tried the cat /dev/pts/2 but nothing happens, only black screen

unless you use screen or something, starting a miner then closing that ssh session will end the miner.

Use screen: sudo apt-get install screen
Start your miners (assuming 2 GPUs) using: /usr/bin/screen -dmS gpu0 phoenix.py -q 3 -v -u http://${MINERUSER}:${MINERPASS}@${MINERSERV} -k phatk WORKSIZE=128 VECTORS BFI_INT FASTLOOP=false AGGRESSION=15 DEVICE=0 /usr/bin/screen -dmS gpu1 phoenix.py -q 3 -v -u http://${MINERUSER}:${MINERPASS}@${MINERSERV} -k phatk WORKSIZE=128 VECTORS BFI_INT FASTLOOP=false AGGRESSION=15 DEVICE=1
Obviously, replace the variables with things that work for you. Connect to a miner GPU0 using: To exit a miner screen and leave it running use: CNTL-A, D
