ISC X-windows problem

I have a problem with a newly installed 386/ix system on a Compaq
386/25.  The problem is that when I exit X-windows, the monitor is not
reset properly, so all I see is a blank screen even though the system
is still running.  If I run xinit, everything is fine once X starts
back up.

There's no kbd_mode command on this system, so I need some other way
of resetting the monitor.  I'm using a Paradise VGA Plus16 card, and
an NEC MultiSync GS2A monitor; I called ISC tech support, but they
weren't much help.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!  Please respond via email - I
don't read this group very often.
