Exit Console mode?
I just made a thread about resetting password. Don't need to as I remembered my login.
However, I still don't know how I even got to this console mode or text mode login? All I see is a black screen with tty1 at the top.
I type my login and pw and it says Last login: blah blah blah
Then shows my desktop name with a command like prompt like
Desktop:'$
So how in the heck do I get out of this mode and go back to regular interface?
