Is there any way to kill a virtual console without rebooting?

I ask because for some reason I keep getting lockups when using vim to edit
multiple buffers. I can switch to a different vc and carry on, but no other
keys work on the vc I started from. Even if I kill the process I was using
there, nothing works.
