This is strange. I use the Ctrl-Alt-F1 to change to the command line all the time, and I don't run into this problem. You do have to hit Alt-F7 to get back to the X secession. (Standard install - this can be changed.) But you should have gotten the GUI login back when you rebooted as well.I foolishly entered "control alt F1" and now my machine will only boot to the command screen.
What is the command to get from the command screen back to XWindows ?
Your help will be much appreciated.

In any case, if it is now booting into level 3, instead of level 5, you can change this in a couple of ways. I believe drakconf offers an option for this. Or you can edit /etc/inittab, and change
id:3:initdefault:
to
id:5:initdefault:
This should fix things, unless you did something to break the X server. You can also run "telinit 5" as root to change to run level 5, instead of rebooting.
