Dear All SL 5.5 Users,
I am installing a nVidia display driver for my Quadro FX-540 on SL 5.5.  
It said that it has Suspend feature.  It sounds very attractive for 
energy saving.  As you know, RHEL 5.5's suspend and hibernate features 
can hardly work (simply hangs up).

The installation requires that I exit the X-Windows to command prompt.
(1) How do I exit to the command prompt from the Gnome login gateway of 
SL 5.5?
(2) How do I return to the Gnome login gateway of SL 5.5 after I have 
successfully installed the nvidia display driver? :-P

The Failsafe command prompt is actually still inside the X-windows. :-D


Yours Faithfully,
Timmy Siu
