I have a similar problem: when leaving X the usual way, the brightness
is reduced a lot or there's a wrong Hsync on the screen.

Solution: I have thee possible resolutions installed (1024x768, 800x600,
640x480). To leave X without crashing the screen mode I press the following
keys (important: you must be in 1024x768 mode): CTRL and ALT (hold down)
and the (on the keypad) <+> <+> <-> <BkSp>.

OK, it's a bit rude, but you don't have to reboot.

BTW, I have a Sigma Legend II (ET4000)
