You would do better finding what is keeping the VT after the crash.
>From memory its the /tmp/.X0-lock, /tmp/.X1-lock etc. Delete the unused
ones and try again. May also be other lock files involved, but its at
least a couple of years since I have seen this - you are using a recent
xorg or xfree system - not a ver 3.x? Use the initscripts to stop all
xservers fist, then delete the lock files and then restart gdm
