It is also useful to know how to rescue a failed X session after booting and in the middle of a graphical problem once logged in. On the old (current!) days you could switch also to a non-graphical VT and enter telinit 3 to go into runlevel 3 during a normal session or if X broke, and then reenable runlevel 5 by telinit 5. Is there going to remain an equivalent after f15 release - i.e. will switching to say VT 3 using the standard shortcut still be possible - and then I guess login as root and do systemctl stop prefdm.service and then systemctl start prefdm.service to reenable the graphical screen? -- mike c -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
