Thank you for your answer. When making the suggested change in /etc/ttys, I get the twm windowing system, instead of xfce. If I subsequently return to the "off" setting, the response is "write failed, filesystem is full" even though I am logged in as root. Please advise.
UPDATE: I have managed to salvage the situation and back to the starting situation. I am back now to where after boot the command line appears and after logging in, the command "startxfce4" will start xfce.
