X normally runs on the first virtual terminal ABOVE those that getty
handles.
thus out of the box, you can often use ALT-F7. If you add virtual
terminals (I use terminals on F1..F12) you can use RIGHT-ALT-F1.
the safest way is normally to do ALT-F1 followed by ALT-left_cursor.

p.s. often I find the X manager closes when I try this - ymmv
