I need access to an old VMWare Ubuntu image and I can't see the login screen. Well, I can see enough to know that it's Ubuntu 7.04, but not the actual area where I type credentials.

This is the same problem as here: [Ubuntu Login Screen Resolution is Off](https://serverfault.com/questions/51628/ubuntu-login-screen-resolution-is-off)

But I can't log in.

**What would the sequence of keystrokes be to login to Ubuntu 7.04?, or is there a way I can force it to console login?**
