Recently I input commands to run tor and popilo and ever since my command terminal opens but I can't input any code as it's just a blank black screen. Any help would be much appreciated as google could not.

Which terminal program? Does xterm work (alt-f2 for run dialog, enter 'xterm')?

I'm using gnome terminal and byobu neither of which will let me input codes.
When I press alt f2 the dash pops up. Ctrl alt f2 brings up a full screen terminal, xterm brings up lots of codes??

Welcome to the Ubuntu Forums
No, it is not xterm, but a text screen, that you can log in to an run 'any' command lines.Originally Posted by muggs13

ctrl + alt + F7
will usually bring you back to the graphics screen.

Did you launch the commands with that particular terminal?
Can you open a new terminal that works with
ctrl + alt + t
Try to log out and log in again!
Reboot and see what happens!

Yes I used byobu and logging out and rebooting didn't change a thing.
