When I end my X session, the screen stays in graphics mode. The
only thing I can do is reboot. Arh!

Also, what do I use as a .xsession and Xdefaults?

I have found (ET4000) that my text mode is only restored properly if I
choose SVGA mode 1. Any other modes wont work. Since it is 100x40, I can
live with it.

This also happens if you run X without the required kernel - at least
0.97p4 I think.
