I am too much of a newbie at this to have even figured out how to go back to the bash prompt. (I'll have to figure that out before I attempt to change anything else).
Ctrl-Alt-F2 should get you to the second virtual terminal (VT) console. At that point, you can kill your X session with a command similar to:
/etc/init.d/xdm stop
(replace xdm with whichever login manager you're running - xdm, gdm, kdm, or wdm being the most likely - "ls /etc/init.d/*dm" to see possibilities)
