Sorry it took so long to get back, can only really look at this issue at the weekends.
I have changed from the open source ATI driver to the propriety one, and the symptoms are slightly different, but the problem remains.
This time, when I press Ctrl-Alt-F2, I can log in and restart safely. Also, the cursor is still visible on F7.
