How do I boot to CLI instead of GUI on Ubuntu Server 11?

Asked by Marcus Szanto

I want to go to CLI instead of GUI because I only want GUI sometimes.
What EXACTLY do I type in the GRUB file(/etc/default/grub) to do this? That file is the boot options file or someone told me that.

edit /etc/defalt/grub

change:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash ipv6.disable=1"

to:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash text"

The default boot for server IS to boot to CLI, not desktop

Can you help with this problem?
