I'm trying to run an update program for Nvidia display driver, it has to be 
run withour "X" running etc. Nvidia provides an update utility for this

I have configured WvDial to run in terminal and it works fine (dials up 
connects etc)

1. But what I am unsure how to do is how to run a terminal/console at the 
prompt without X running, in order to run the Nvidia update utility

If all else fails I can FTP the update file and run it with emacs/reconfig 
inittab & x86 etc when I boot up (which is how I installed the updated Nvidia 
driver in the first place) 

I have spent a couple of nights on the HowTos/Rute etc without finding much

ALSO

2. I am unsure of the command to return to X again when I log in at the 
prompt, by pressing "ctrl-alt-F1", up till now i have just rebooted 

a few pointers would be appreciated


cheers................dave
