A console is not exclusive with a gui in Linux.

Ctrl-ALT-Backspace kills off the Xserver (and anything running under it).
Ctrl-Alt-f1 thru F9 of f10 bring up seperate consoles, with the Xserver
running on Ctrl-alt-f7.

If its hung, you can usually just do ctrl-alt-f3 (or something), and
find out why...
