If you can get to a tty# and it is functional, you shouldn't need to restart the entire system. Try just restarting X: rcxdm restart Substitute your chosen displaymanager for xdm.
Thing is I shouldn't have to resort to that. My desktop should be there when I come back. That's what I'm working for not a work around to this feature or bug.
