Give Me Back My Terminal Window Suse

[TDDandBKidd]

Yo! Everyone, I have a noobie ? or maybe its not a noobie ?. I'm still sorta a Suse Linux noob but my server is up & for a 33 ticker its kicking butt. Here's my problem.
Sometimes while the server is running I have to edit a file and I accidently close (not minimize) the terminal window. I'd like to know if there is a way to restore the terminal window so I can monitor the server. Since I'm playing CSSZH from a Windows computer lan connection I can rcon commands to the Suse Linux server. But I'd just like to know is there is way to get the Dude Linux terminal screen back?

How did you get the window up to begin with?

Have you tried reconnecting and reattaching screen?

Thank's for Your reply. I think that You have used the correct word "reattaching".. I'd like to know how to reattacth or get the screen that the games events is running on back.
It is the same screen (I call it the servers game event terminal screen) window) that you type the ./srcds_run -console -game cstrike +map etc..... commands in. Thats the place that somitmes I accidently close while the server is still running. When i click on the terminal icon I just get a new blank screen. So reattaching the original screen must be what I'm looking for. How to do that is what I need to know.

screen -ls - list all screens
screen -x [#pid | screen name] - attaches to screen
Ctrl + A, Ctrl + D - detaches from a screen
screen -wipe - cleans up all non-functioning screens

Does the game continue playing if you close the terminal window?
When you first logged in to start the server, did you type 'screen' anywhere?

You can reasonably expect that any programs you start from a shell to be killed if you logout or disconnect.

Screen is a linux utility that enables programs to continue living if you should die. An example of use is here: Complete Linux Server Setup Guide

running screen with no options will create a new 'screen'

man screen has lots of useful info too
