I killed X ctrl-alt-backspace to relogin
Second experiment.
I logged in. Then I switched user.
Then I logged out of the user session I switched to.
blank screen, and this time I could not get to a virtual terminal. When trying
to access a virtual terminal, I saw only a blank white screen. killing X does
