when I do ctrl-alt-f1 I get a list of messages such as "Restore
TV PLL," etc. rather than a command prompt. I don't get that on my other

Use:
startx &
which will open the X session in the background. Then you can do
ctl-alt-f1 and get to a usable terminal. Or you could just use console
2 by typing ctl-alt-f2.
