Re: [linrad] VESA; and a question

You type X until you get to the main menu and then type ESC.  Usually I have
to type a ctl-c once I get back to the X window environment to stop the
scrolling.

I thought it should be possible to goto another console and return by typing
ctrl-alt-F1 etc, but that seems to kill Linrad.  I would also appreciate any
clarification.
