Hi, 

I just installed FreeBSD 5.3 on my system.  I used Xorg to configure the
X window and it sees to work fine.  But I can't get the
Ctrl>Alt>Backspace to work to close down the X server.  When I use the
keyboard combo my Dell monitor goes blank. From there I can blindly type
"startx" and it goes back into the X windows.  But how can I get out of
X and back to the console window ?  
Thanks,
Mike
