If this is once the X server starts, you should be able to kill it with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace (assuming you chose Xorg). Do that 5 times or so and dtlogin should finally give up on starting it and return you to console. To make Xorg actually display on the laptop screen, you'll need to tell it to use the builtin screen - for some reason it's probe sees the VGA & DVI ports, but not the builtin screen. You can fix this in your xorg.conf with Option "MonitorLayout" "LVDS,CRT" in the Device section.
