[GTALUG] Xrandr problem

I have an annoying problem. I run a two-monitor setup with
xrandr, one monitor in portrait and the other in landscape
mode. I set xrandr in the .xinitrc file, and it works well.
The only problem is that when I quit the window manager (in
this case goomwwm), the screen goes to black and I'm pretty
sure I never return to the console (blind typing produces no
results). The computer itself keeps running; I can ssh in.
Any advice or suggestions? I can't quite figure how to turn
xrandr *off* once it's been set in .xinitrc. Oh, and if I
boot without xrandr, I go straight back to the console when
I quit X (as it should).
