Or, perhaps, Ctrl Alt F1, to get back to the GUI. It depends on what Fedora release you're using, and how you started up a GUI. You usually have eight consoles set up, accessible from, Ctrl Alt and F1 through to F8. Step through them to find the console you need, usually you can hold down Ctrl and Alt, and just press alternate F keys. Wait a moment before trying the next one, it's not always instantaneous. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.6.9-2.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Dec 4 13:26:04 UTC 2012 x86_64 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
