This procedure works except that after exiting X-Windows, my console
is not left in the state it was in before X was invoked (using xinit).
In particular, pressing the Return key does not return the cursor to the
left side of the screen.  The console appears to be "eating" carriage returns
even though the newlines continue to get through.  The only solution
I've found thus far is to type "stty sane".  Is anyone else experiencing
this problem - if so, are there any fixes?
