I've got X setup along with KDE and KDM, but X isn't letting me drop to console by the use of ctrl-alt-f1-4. It just goes to a black screen and I can't even get it to go back to KDE after doing this. If any config files would help diagnosing the problem please let me know.

On the KDM screen, you will see a drop down menu that will allow you to select a number of options.
You can choose one of your WM or desktops or you can choose to go back to a console login screen instead.
That should solve your dilemma. otherwise you want to Ctrl + Alt + Backspace and initiate 'init 3' to get to a login and when you want to go back to kdm just go back to init 5

A few years ago, using the nVidia framebuffer (rivafb) in combination with the nVidia binary drivers resulted in a similar bug. If you are using this combination, you might want to switch to vesafb for your console framebuffer and everything will work as it should.
