Hi.
Please consider the following:
I use Unity,KDE plasma, Gnome 3.x and xfce for different user accounts, OS is Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit LTS. From the login screen, I can choose the environment I want to use for every user. Now, my question is: Can I enter into a console (like konsole or other terminal) directly from the lightdm login screen manager? For example, username "subha-gnome" passsword: "[mypassword]" and environment console (we can do this partially on newer Windows versions by pressing F8 while booting or editing the MBR, but can't choose by default).
I hope I'm clear. Please enlighten me if I can do it and if yes, how.
Thanks in advance.
