Just clarify this a bit: Ctrl-Alt-F7 will take you back to the first X session, which conventionally runs on terminal number 7. If you have multiple sessions logged in at once, you can use Ctrl-Alt-F8 (for example) to get the second session, C-A-F9 to get to the third... never tried more than 3.
And speaking of clarification, once your at a console, you no longer need the ctrl in the sequence. ctrl is what excapes X. So, you only need to alt-F7 to get back to X, or alt-F1, alt-F2, etc. for other consoles. Like, console 11 which I think is displaying dmesg. B-)
