Hi Paul,

I've just had another go at killing X.  I had to kill this process first.

/bin/sh /etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc -- /etc/X11/xinit xserverrc

Then X restarted and left me at a login prompt.  Then I killed this process

/usr/bin/X -core :0 -seat seat0 -auth /var/run/lightdm/root/:0 -nolisten
tcp vt7 -novtswitch

After that you should be able to continue with the rest of the instructions.
