How do I run a web browser from linux command line?
Q. I an VERY new to linux. I have installed Fedora 5 in text mode. I have a Linux book and am trying to slowly learn linux. So from the console, or command line, how do I run a web browser. Also how do I run the X Windows System?

I think the command to start the x server thing is “startx”. that’s what it was on Backtrack at least…
If you installed in text mode, maybe you didn’t install X. You probably have a text mode browser. Try lynx or elinks. If the startx command doesn’t work, try “yum install x-window-system”. By the way, Fedora 5 is old. The current version of Fedora is 9.
