Back Grub, it 's been a while since I had to reboot my system so I can 't say
exactly what it says. (10:15am up 368 days, 21:24, 1 user, load average:
0.47, 0.23, 0.08)

I am running a dual boot. Is that at safe mode from the first dos bit or
from the grub bit. Sorry for being so dum.

It 's called a command prompt/shell. Boot into "safe mode " init 1
"boot single " from your boot loader

How do I get to that file without being able to get into Gnome?

Try editing /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 and fine the line that says
Modes "1280x1024 " or similar
Change them down to say "1024x768 "
See if that helps
