I did a successful minimal install of Jaunty, and used the excellent XBMScript to get drivers/XBMC going... but now it boots straight into XBMC (which is nice, that's what I want), but now I can't figure out how to get back to the terminal so I can run the script again to get the lastest SVN, and to install LIRC and FTP!

Ctrl-Alt-F1 should drop you to one of six(*) virtual terminals

Alt-F7 should return you to X windows(*).

(F2 through F5 are also separate virtual terminals)

Or, ssh in from another box.

Thanks, that's what I needed!

I forgot to install ssh server when choosing packages, it's one of the reasons I need to get to terminal...
