avizit you have been typing very fast that's why this typo, I got 4 min delay in compare to you...:-))<br />
<br />
piratepatrol another option is that if you want command prompt an also have your GUI running you can switch to it from GUI by using CTRL+ALT+F[1-6] function keys. To go back to GUI just ALT+F7. It's more quicker :-) <br />

Hi friends,<br />
<br />
I was just wondering how to turn off the GUI in Fedora. &nbsp;I also would like the GUI to not start automatically after reboot. &nbsp;I want it to go to the command line, whereupon I can type &quot;startx&quot; to start the GUI if I want to.<br />

Hi friends,

I was just wondering how to turn off the GUI in Fedora.  I also would like the GUI to not start automatically after reboot.  I want it to go to the command line, whereupon I can type "startx" to start the GUI if I want to.

Thank you so much,

How to Turn Off the GUI

Linux is a UNIX-like open source operating system with hundreds of distinct distributions, including: Fedora, openSUSE, Ubuntu, Debian, Slackware, Gentoo, CentOS, and Arch Linux. Linux is generally associated with web and database servers, but has become popular in many niche industries and applications.
