How do I get from

Post by z06gal »

the command line to my desktop? I ran nvidia-xconfig as root and then hit control alt backspace but it just takes me back to my terminal login. Thanks

Ctrl-Alt-Backspace logs you out. You need to log in again at the login screen.

I believe the command is just startx, not restartx.
