How does one exit the X server?

So it looks like I need to install Nvidia manually, and to do so, I need to stop the X server completely.

After pressing [CTRL]+[ALT]+[F1], I tried this command at the prompt:

sudo service gdm stop

... but all I get is "unknown service:" and the NVIDIA install script won't run.

This also doesn't work:

sudo gdm stop

It just takes me a login screen.

How can I completely kill X in 11.04?
