I agree with you. Command line rocks. But the GUI is
still essential for
tasks like browsing the internet
Maybe not all browser features, but, you can use
links2 or lynx.
or watching your
favourite movie,
Who said so? Never heard of framebuffer?
Press Control+Alt+F1 to get a console, login as user,
and play a movie using mplayer:
mplayer movie.file
OR
mplayer -vo fbdev movie.file
If you have framebuffer support enabled in the kernel,
it should play.
For more options check:
mplayer -vo help
or
playing a game.
Well if the game supports frame buffer output, you can
play it in terminals F1-F6.
And yes, command line rocks!
