I've successfully installed X Windows with the systemd Version

After I start X Windows with startx, and then exit back to the
Console, the Console is in a weird state: it does not display what you
type at the keyboard. And the prompt is way off to the right of the
screen. However, it does execute commands you type, even though
they're not displayed. For example, "shutdown -r now" works.
Any clues what's going on?

Have you tried typing "reset" (followed by carriage return)? Or better
(^J: control+J)reset(^J).
That worked, thank you very much!
What's the difference in effect between reset-RETURN and reset-Ctrl-J
? Both worked.
Alan
Well, normally, the "return" key sends Ctrl-J, so it should do the same,
but some consoles may "interpret" the "return" key and send something
else, specially if they have been put into a weird state.
