You can switch to a terminal after taking the keyboard out of raw mode. The X window system puts the keyboard into raw mode but stops responding so it will ignore all key presses. You can take it out of raw mode on most machines running linux by pressing ALT->Sys Rq(Same Key as Print Screen)->r then CTRL->ALT->F1 to get to the first terminal.
