  12. I've just installed Linux 0.98, and configured the Xconfig, but once
  13. i'm in Xwindows, i can't exit to a text mode.  It's supporting the graphics
  14. mode, but went I exit, I'm stuck with a blank screen.  I can switch to
  15. different terminals, but I don't see anything.  It does reboot, however, and
  16. take keyboard input, I just don't see it.
