Press Ctrl-Alt-F7 and you are back in X.

Yes, that worked ok

This probably has to do with a higher security setting of your machine.
That prevents root from logging in directly.
Ahh yes, but at the log in screen i log into root that way as well??

Best way to go about then is:
open an xterm
become root (type su and enter root password)
then type halt or reboot

Thanks
