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
