My Linux boots to xwindows, need console

Well, i messed up on the installation and Linux boots to window mode instead of console mode.

I'm pretty new to the whole Linux universe and i'm currently taking Linux in school, so figured i'd play with a dual boot system at home.

Anyhow, here's the problem. I recently installed Red Hat 9 and during the set up, i forgot to select the console log in. Now it boots to windows each time. I'm trying to install the drivers for my video card, and it tells me i need to leave the windowed mode and run from console.

How exactly do i do that and how can i change it so i boot to console. I saw something that said to modify your /etc/inttab file but wasn't sure what to put it too.

any help would be appreciated.

nm, i figured it out, but i can't get my drivers to install. says i don't have a compiled kernel or something

lol, nm again, figure that part out as well.

I'll shut up for the day

Glad we could help...

Just in case anyone else has this problem, and sees this thread:

in /etc/inittab there is a line that looks like:
just change that to
and it will boot to console logon

If there's anything using Linux is teaching me it's to hold off asking for a solution somewhere until I've given it one or two more tries; it almost always works. Even when I have jumped the gun I've yet to run into any of the elitists RTFM attitude you hear about. I hope I'm not just lucky!
