The best solution (IMO) is to just call 'chvt' from a remote console.
It happened a few times to me when using opengl with my Voodoo2 and
it did not switched back to my 2d card.
Some people even go deeper and attachs a script that is triggered by a
joystick to do this. So all they have to do is to click the button :)
