I saw this posted in the groups, but no response there. I start X

from startx, and works fine, but on exit,
I don't have a screen, but i can type "shutdown -r now", blindly, and
it works. What is it?

I have an ati radeon 7500, and have the problem on both an lcd and a
crt monitor. I'm running fvwm 2.4.15.

I have had this happen with various higher level video cards, nVIDIA & 
Matrox
etc. - what I have done to work around the problem is to not use 
framebuffer
mode. Set lilo to vga=normal and you should get your term screen back.
