restoring text mode after x server crash

[Tobias Diedrich <ranma@example.com>]

Hi all,
 
does someone here know a way to restore the text mode if the x server
crashed and did not manage to switch back to text mode before getting
killed ?
This seems to happen a lot with the nv driver since apt-get updated
to xfree-4.1. ... *sigh*

One way might be to use a graphical framebuffer but I don't want that
because that one is slower than real text mode and doesn't seem to
work too well with nvidia's linux-port of their windows driver,
which I sometimes use if I need xvideo or opengl...
(more often the former)
