I'm having the same basic problem except I don't have X to get to Midnight Commander and I don't get any characters after starting MC. I have to go to another virtual console find the PID with ps and then kill it. I have to reboot to get MC to start working again. I can't correlate MC failing to start with other events and I haven't found a way to get MC working again without rebooting (ouch).
