I found it a bit strange yesterday, when I reinstalled debian on a laptop, that I couldn´t login as root graphically, and also that as a normal user I can´t shutdown or reboot graphically or in text. Only via su. Also, how can one get out of the whole x system under Debian? To get back into text mode? I also haven´t found a method of booting into text.
