From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I know I can press esc to check the startup logs, which might hive a few more details. But I'm out right now, so I can't check till later.
That's not what I mean. You can just switch to a different tty console. Your default on boot is a graphical interface, but there are others ready and available.

Oh, I hadn't realised those were there. I'll see if I can get the GUI back up through the terminal. Do you have any idea what might've causes it to fail in the first place, though?
No disk space available, corrupt startup scripts, borked update, etc...
Could be anything. Driver issues, memory issues, config issues..who knows.
Just check logs once you get logged in, and it should be easier to figure out.
