Newb question

Does X start ok when you type startx?
If your system has been set to go into text mode by default (run level 3) open the file /etc/inittab and look for a line like

id:3:initdefault:

and change the "3" to "5" (Run level 5 is X-windows).

And for the record, there are a few text mode browsers, lynx being the best known.
