I have created an rc.local file that calls .../xdm, so now my machine brings
up a graphical login screen on boot.  The problem is, I am unable to type in
a username or password.  I don't know what's going on.  Is there any way to
get around this?  I mean how do I boot into a non-graphical login prompt, or
cancel xdm when it comes up?  I can't type anything into the console window
either.

Thanks,

Chris.
