ALT+CTRL+F? cause X to restart

Something is amiss here somewhere. I try to get to a console using ALT+CRTL+F1-6 and when I do this, the X server will restart! I cannot access these terminals at all. I made sure that the permissions in YaST are set to easy but this thing still persists in restarting X. What do I need to do to get this to work as expected? Thanks! Marshall
