Details:

This is a follow-up to bug #46308 comment 7
<https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?46308#comment7>.

While I was testing Gnash's FrameBuffer UI in bug #46308, I found that
when `fb-gnash` is run on FrameBuffer console, as it finished running,
the screen would not go back to command line display; instead, it just
continue showing the last SWF frame, and switching back to X11 or other
console
using Alt+Fn key doesn't work.

Currently, one must blindly type commands to switch to root user and run
`shutdown -r now`, `init 6`, pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del, or issue magic SysRq
on keyboard to reboot the machine in order to get the display back to usable
state.

Gnash: 0.8.11dev (git 62cfdfe 16-Jan-2016)
Framebuffer: inteldrmfb `/dev/fb0` 1366x768 32-bit RGBA
X11: xorg 1:7.7+3~deb7u1 with xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.19.0-6 (debian)
System: Debian GNU/Linux 7.0 Wheezy i386

Note: `textmode` command from `svgalib-bin` package and `reset` command
from `ncurses-bin` package didn't seem to help in this case.
