Get 'quiet' off the line where you type the 3 and change 'splash=silent' to 'splash=verbose' and you'll boot without the graphics, instead getting all available boot messages, which will scroll by faster than they can be read.

Remember, Linux by default is multi-user. This sequence is switching from one "user" to another, even though you're using the same keyboard and display.
Ctrl-Alt-F4
Ctrl-Alt-F3
Ctrl-Alt-F2
Ctrl-Alt-F5
Ctrl-Alt-F6
Alt-F7 gets you back to X if X is running
Ctrl- is only _necessary_ if you want to get to a tty from X, not to switch from one tty to another.
By logging in on multiple ttys at once you have the same effect as multiple windows in X, such as a man page in one, a cmdline running zypper in another, a text editor in another, tailing /var/log/messages in another, top in another, the swiss army knife (MC) in another, etc.

I am now logged into tty1; I will search how to switch to another tty, but
if you want to give a hint, that would be helpful.
