Well, it's hard to help given a shortage of detail,... e.g., when you 
"switch back" exactly what key strokes do you enter?

when you do try to switch back, you imply that the screen you get to
has a login prompt on it,... is this a text or a gui login prompt?

given the default RH configuration, and unless you've changed it (as
have I), you have SIX text consoles, F1-F6, and when X starts up it
is running on F7. So, when you switch away from X by ctrl-alt-F1, 
to return to X you need to do ALT-F7. Is that what you're doing?
