Hi Paul,
I trust you do not mean the `reset button` literally as
CTL-ALT-BKSP will terminate the X-server much better..
The first thing to look for is any actual errors from the X-server, try
switching back to the console that you started X from. eg. CTRL-ALT-F1
for the first console. You probably have a message their saying something
important that you miss when you hit the Big Red Lever.
cya, Andrew...
