 Is there some special login name, or command sequence?

Depending on your distro, you could have several virtual terminals
already running.  Pressing Ctrl-Alt-F1 will get you to the first one (I
have six - F1 to F6), and (again, depending on your distro - my example
is for Red Hat) Ctrl-Alt-F7 will get you back to your X terminal.  You
can do this at any time, and you can be logged in on any of them at any
time.

Ahh! I had tried that (sort of). Usually it is simply Alt-Fx to switch terminals and that doesn't work anymore. But I tried your suggestionb of the Ctrl-Alt-Fx combination and that works wonderfully!

Thanks
Andrew
