i've got a client whose hardware guy just installed debian woody
on a dual-processor raid box fresh from dell (they bought a dell
server a month ago a wiped it clean to install debian woody!). i
keep trying to get him to summarize his expoits for deb-user folk
to share, but i fear he's on to other things...

DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #89 from Karsten M. Self <kmself@ix.netcom.com>
:
HOSED YOUR X SESSION (but not the entire system)?  Try 'chvt'
which allows directly targeting any virtual terminal:
    $ chvt 1
    $ chvt 42
If you can still ssh in remotely, running 'chvt 1'
re-establishes your console on the box (or confirms that the
display is fuxnored). Try "apt-get install console-tools" to
get it.
