Sometimes, when I run some X applications on my PS/2 under AIX1.2 
my X-server crashes. I cannot interact with the console any more.
If I login from another machine, the system is still up but all the
processes related with the X-server including the server are non-existent.

Is there any way to recover the console without rebooting the system? I would
be grateful if somebody could help me on this. Thanks Panos
