Hello,
I just went through my first net install a real easy process. But I made the mistake of installing graphic desktop enviorment and chose gdm by default. Due to some video card i just get noise.

How do I change it? Using the command line of course. I did install the command line enviorment.

You can switch to a terminal with Ctrl+Alt+F1 (or F2 or F3 or ... or F6). After logging in, you can fix your problem. To remove all graphical applications, I would try to remove the "x11-common" package (and all packages that depend on it):
$ sudo apt-get remove --purge x11-common

This will probably do it but for a more complete job of getting rid of the graphic desktop

sudo tasksel remove trisquel-desktop
