What did you do exactly? After switching to console I cannot use vi to

Hi,
I just clicked on the interface, then pressed ctrl-alt-del to kill X.
My keyboard worked fine on the command line, so i logged in using 'root' without password, and did vi /etc/X11/Xserver deleted the @270 and saved the file.

Yes. Note that I added the [EMAIL PROTECTED] part. I did this because by default it was showing the screen being in landscape mode, when it "should" be in portrait mode. I also have a second monitor (xinerama) and am displaying it full screen on there with a tilted LCD. :)

I also removed an init.d file and put it in root's homedir--it was for screen calibration at bootup.

Typing startx at that point didn't work for me, so I simply killed qemu, and started it up again.

Ya, no startx. One way: you can just run `init 3` then `init 5`.

If you want to edit the files outside of qemu, you can do:

losetup /dev/loop0 qemuarm-image.ext2
mount /dev/loop0 /mnt
vi /mnt/etc/X11/Xserver
umount /mnt
losetup -d /dev/loop0
