Try pressing holding <ctrl><alt> and pressing <F7>.  This should
(hopefully) switch you to the graphical terminal.  

You can get to any of the 6 local text terminala on a thin client by
pressing <ctrl><alt><F1> or <F2>, etc.  This can be useful for debugging
(though you must first create an account in the LTSP system in /opt/ltsp/
on the server).  You use <ctrl><alt><F7> to return to the graphical
session.
