You should be able to telnet in from another machine to reboot though.
Things to try:
1) Don't use a font server. If you have, in your XF86Config, in
the Section "Files", a FontPath entry that looks like:
FontPath "unix/:some number"
remove it. And instead take the paths from your font server config
(often in /etc/X11/fs/config) and put those in the XF86Config instead.
Eg.
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType"
2) If that doesn't help, comment out the TrueType line. That may change
the appearance of the fonts severely, but it's a good test to try
to narrow down the problem.
Mark.
