   Hi all, I have a bit of a newbie question here:   
      
   I'm running my testing website off of a 6.06 server edition with XUbuntu    
   installed - the reason I installed a GUI is because I'm learning    
   terminal commands but find it useful to go back and forth between a    
   terminal window and a GUI.   
      
   What I'd like to do when I'm not working on the site is to have the    
   computer just running in terminal mode so that it uses less RAM.    
   However, if I click the "Session" button at the login screen I get this:   
      
   -Last Session   
   -1)Xfce Session   
   -2)Default System Session (which, when I tried it, turned out to be Xfce)   
   -3)Gnome (funny, I don't have Gnome installed! - THis produces a nice    
   chocolate screen that doesn't do anything.)   
   -failsafe Gnome   
   -failsafe Terminal   
      
   The problem with failsafe Terminal, I would imagine, is that is won't    
   start the server right?   
      
   How do I go about adding "Terminal" to this list.  Or, is there a better    
   way to go about booting up in Terminal mode?   
      
   Thanks for any help, as always!
