Console characters display as blocks

	When I switch from X to VT 1-6 all characters display as blocks 
and the keyboard goes into raw mode.  After using C-M-SysRq to reset the 
keyboard I can log in and type commands blindly.  Switching back to VT 7 
shows only block characters, even though X is still running.

	I have tried running mode3 to reset the display to no avail.  I 
end up having to restart X just to get a usable shell.

	Geordie.
