Virtual Console
 
Yesterday I was playing with some code in console and today system only stars in virtual console, I try everything and nothing works. Can someone can give me the command to go back to the graphics environment. I’m Using Mandrake 10

Thanks

Do you mean that the PC used to boot to a graphical login but now you only get the text login when you boot the PC? If so, did you change the /etc/inittab file? The quickest way to tell if this is the problem is to run the following command as root:
Code:

telinit 5
If the system successfully changes to graphical mode, open /etc/inittab (as root) with a text editor and change the default run level line from:
Code:

id:3:initdefault:
To:
Code:

id:5:initdefault:
