Solaris Common Messages and Troubleshooting Guide

On a SPARC system: find another machine and remote login to this system, then run this command:

$ /usr/openwin/bin/kbd_mode -a

This puts the console back into ASCII mode. Note that kbd_mode is not a windows program, it just fixes the console mode.

On an x86 system: log in remotely and start, then kill the X server, or reboot the system.
