Bloodshedder Posted July 2, 2003 He wants to shut down the X-Windows windowing system in SuSE Linux version 8.2 to get to the command line. Kind of like shutting down Windows 9x to get to DOS, in principle. 0 Share this post Link to post
læmænt Posted July 3, 2003 Ctrl-Alt-Backspace? Or just log out (most window manager allow you to)? 0 Share this post Link to post
Sephiroth Posted July 3, 2003 yes, think of it as shuitting windows down to DOS. no that option is not given at shut down, and know i dont want to mess with boot files and steps. i just need to turn it off quickly to install drivers 0 Share this post Link to post
