I haven't run Linux in a loooong time, but can't you just run "init 3" from a console session to restart in runlevel 3?  Pardon my ignorance...   :)

There is not /etc/inittab file in Ubuntu because Ubuntu uses
/etc/event.d/rc-default file

You can fix this problem by editing /etc/event.d/rc-default file
First backup file,
Code:

sudo cp /etc/event.d/rc-default /etc/event.d/rc-default.bakup

Open vi /etc/event.d/rc-default
Code:

sudo vi /etc/event.d/rc-default

Find all lines read as - telinit 2 and replace with telinit 3
Code:

telinit 3

Reboot the system

A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from
rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.
