I am having terrible troubles with X in Debian, and worse, I can't escape from the X server so that I can get into the command line and fix things. When I boot up, linux goes straight into a graphic log-in screen that is too large for my 17-inch monitor. When I log in, I get a blank, green screen with no icons. I try every possible combination of key strokes, but nothing happens although I can hear something going on my hard drive. When I try alt-control-backspace, nothing happens. I am forced to reboot. Since I can't get to the command line, I can't get into things and change whatever mess I have made. I configured Xfree86 for a voodoo3 2000 card. This is the the first time I tried setting up X in Debian. This is slink, the version that comes with the Oreilly book. Please help, steve w
