[newbie] Boot Defaults

[Joel B]

I currently have linux booting directly into the x-windows logon screen  
instead of the standard linux login screen ie;

Kernel 2.2.15-4mdk on an i686
login: 

How do I exit x-windows completely and drop me to my shell prompt?
As of now my only option is to 'logoff' which will simply drop me back to
the x-windows logon screen.


Thanks for your help in advance,
