My preferred way of working is out of a console running byobu and GNU screen and starting X only when needed. This no longer works as both screen and X use virtual terminals and instead of X starting on F7-F9, it is on F1; so that the console terminal is unusable.
If you're working on tty1, then alt-F2, log in and run startx.
ctrl-alt-F1 to get back to your console. alt-F2 again to get back to your
desktop.
