  Yes... you can do ALT-CTRL-F1..F6 to get to Virtual Consoles 1-6, and then
do ALT-F7 from your Virtual Console, to return to your X Window.  neat, heh?

  Takes a second or two, while it's making the change... but it works fine.

  The ALT-F7 is the number of the first FREE virtual console, so if your
system has more than 6 Virtual Consoles set up for login, then the number
would be the next one after that.

hope that makes sense...
