0.8b5 boot to desktop issue
  • I upgraded from b4 to b5 and inside raspi-config I chose the boot to desktop configuration. Now whenever I start the pi it boots to the desktop, but it still has an overlay of the old menu and I cannot see what I click.

    What file does raspi-config edit and how can I make the system boot to terminal / menu?
  • How can I open a terminal?
  • if you exit out of the piplay menu (press esc or use escape) you should be at the X desktop. If you attach a network cable, you can ssh in and run raspi-config from the ssh terminal. Are you not getting a desktop when you exit out?
  • I had to reformat the card. On a side note, I think the LeftCtrl+Q "quit to terminal" shortcut should be mentioned in the Quick Start Guide http://pimame.org/quickstart.html ? Took me a long time to find that answer on Google.

Howdy, Stranger!
