Two of us just went through it, last week. A number of tweaks gets you going again, but the real answer is to set: VTAllocation=true in /usr/X11R6/etc/gdm/gdm.conf You may want to set the Virtual Terminal you want as well. I turn off 5-8 to tty, and have mine come on VT5. I never use the four as it is. Paul.
