virtual consoles unresponsive



I've lost the ability to switch virtual consoles on my Woody system. 
One of the sysadmins logged in as the backup user through the kdm
desktop and when he logged out the monitor went dark.  Now we can't
switch to a virtual console using Ctrl-Alt-Fn, nor can we switch to the
kdm desktop with Ctrl-Alt-F7.  I've seen something like this happen on
other linux systems before and my only solution was to reboot.  I hate
to do that for something so stupid.  Is there some way to restore this
functionality with rebooting the system?
