Indeed. I have spent *a lot* of time on IRC in #fedora helping people
recover from situations like this. There is no way I'm going to be
trying to explain to people on IRC how to switch virtual consoles,
pull up a process list, kill an X server and restart X. I am just
going to tell them they are screwed because some people want linux to
be more like windows, and you will have to reboot the entire machine
instead of just restarting X. Sorry.
