Related to my XFree86-4.0/Trident Cyberblade crashes

This is really an X question, but maybe someone can answer it anyway. Is
there a way I can *prevent* X from allowing me to switch to a text-mode
screen with Ctrl-Alt-Fn? If I could do this then at least I'll stop
inadvertantly crashing my laptop - it's just such a habit for me to
switch I keep doing it (I usually do my editing with vi on text-mode
screens and run Netscrape communicator under X for my mail and web). If
the only way to get to a text-mode tty is to kill X, then at least I
will have to do less power-cycles and fscks. I'll just have to learn to
do my editing under X.
