I haven't done that. If I do, I will first copy all the files
as they are.

No. Nor does kill PID or switching to tty1 and shutting down the
xserver with ^C, or anything like that. No matter what I do,
it kills the tty and I have reboot.

Because the getty on tty2 won't allow me to login (takes username
but not password) I have to reboot. That getty doesn't work at
all, by the way. I can't switch to it with Ctrl-Alt-F2 and login,
ever.

But that's a different matter. And not especially critical.
