Try to press Alt-F7 from the terminal screen. You should be able to go back
to X.
Ctrl-Alt-Backspace will kill your X, but then you should go back to GDM
Login automatically.
If you have problem with the X, you can go to the terminal screen
(Ctrl-Alt-F1...) then kill the process that making the problem or restart
the X.
