Chris,
You can change to a virtual console by pressing the key combination "control+
Alt+ F2 through F6". (X generally runs on console 7 (Control+ Alt+ F7) From
there you can edit /etc/inittab with your favorite text editor. In order for
the change to take effect, the easiest thing to do is reboot. There is
another way, I believe but I'm just lazy enough to not hunt for it.
