Dear Barbara,
                The simple way is to look under the shutdown menu at the
graphical
login. You will find access to the console mode there. Note that you may
have to press carriage return once to get a login prompt but after this
all you have to do is login. To start an X session from this prompt
either type "startx" or init 5 to get to your normal run level.

                        Regards,
