Er, if you have 4 vty's, (Alt-F1->Alt-F4), all with gettys, then you
_should_ be able to get the X session back on vty04 (Alt-F5). If not, then
the bug still exists for you. Remember 2 things; 1- the number of virtual
terminals is now dynamic, 2- there must be a /dev/ttyv?? for each one you
are going to use...  If I am teaching my grandmother to suck eggs, please
just silently pass the funny hat :-)
