Yes, it is just switching from the graphical environment to the virtual
consoles.  Those consoles are now called multiuser, but used to be
runlevel 3.  You should be able to log in as your user, and run cli
commands like top and ls, etc.

The graphical environment runs on virtual console 1, which is why you
need to use another virtual console to switch away from it, and 1 to
switch back.
