## Switch between GUI and CLI
|
|
|
|
To switch to text mode (also known as command-line interface or CLI) in systemd-based systems, you can use systemctl `set-default multi-user.target` to permanently change the default boot target. Alternatively, you can temporarily switch to text mode using `systemctl isolate multi-user.target`.
|
|
|
|
Here's a breakdown of how to switch to text mode:
|
|
|
|
### 1. Checking the Current Default Target*
|
|
First, it's helpful to know what your current default target is. You can check this with:
|
|
|
|
systemctl get-default
|
|
|
|
This command will display the current default target, which is likely `graphical.target` if you're currently in a graphical environment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 2. Permanently Switching to Text Mode (Multi-User Target)
|
|
To make text mode the default target on boot, use the following command:
|
|
|
|
sudo systemctl set-default multi-user.target
|
|
|
|
After running this command, you will need to reboot your system for the change to take effect:
|
|
|
|
sudo systemctl reboot
|
|
|
|
Now, when your system starts, it will boot directly into text mode.
|
|
|
|
|
|
###3. Temporarily Switching to Text Mode (Using isolate)
|
|
If you want to switch to text mode without changing the default, you can use the isolate command:
|
|
|
|
sudo systemctl isolate multi-user.target
|
|
|
|
This command will immediately switch your system to text mode without requiring a reboot. However, the next time you boot, it will revert to the default target (which you can set using set-default as described above).
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 4. Switching Back to Graphical Mode
|
|
To switch back to graphical mode, you can use the following command (if you previously used set-default):
|
|
|
|
sudo systemctl set-default graphical.target
|
|
|
|
And then reboot:
|
|
|
|
sudo systemctl reboot
|
|
|
|
Or, if you used isolate, you can switch back with:
|
|
|
|
sudo systemctl isolate graphical.target
|
|
|
|
## Important Notes
|
|
|
|
### multi-user.target
|
|
This target represents a system with networking enabled but without a graphical interface (X server or Wayland).
|
|
|
|
### graphical.target
|
|
This target represents a system with a graphical interface.
|
|
|
|
### Reboot
|
|
When changing the default target, a reboot is necessary for the change to be applied.
|
|
|
|
### Temporary changes
|
|
Using isolate provides a temporary change that is not persistent across reboots.
|
|
|
|
### Closing Applications
|
|
Switching to text mode will terminate any running graphical applications. Make sure to save your work before switching.
