<Ctrl><Alt>F1 or F2/F3 etc should get you to a virtual text console.

Note when you are using text consoles you can just use Alt-F1 etc to
switch between them.

There are key strokes to switch between configured X resolutions and to
kill the x-server explicitly.

Wish I could remember what they were!

Something like <Ctrl><Alt>+ or <Ctrl><Alt>-  to change resolutions
up/down.

Something similar with the delete key to kill X.

Good luck...
