Hi I'm a newbie of Arch and I'm trying to end the installation. I've done some mistakes I think because I've commented out the line exec xterm and now SLIM start but I don't have the shell. I just want to return to non graphic shell!
Another problem is that X doesn't stop whit control-alt-backspace
What I have to do?
Thanks a lot

look into single user mode and the xorg wiki (trobleshooting).

You can try "exit" or "console" in slim as username (where you would put your username).
USAGE AND SPECIAL USERNAMES
When started, slim will show a login panel; enter the username and password of the user you want to
login as.
Special usernames:
console
open a xterm console
exit quit slim
halt shutdown the machine
reboot reboot the machine
suspend
power-suspend the machine
