this was about the second thing I tried (after interactive startup) and it 
yields the dreaded message:

"fatal server error: server is already active for display 0"
(if this server is no longer running type remove /tmp /.x0-lock and start 
again" but of course it is running...)

oh, and pressing 'I' to enter the interactive startup mode is just ignored, 
can't say why...
