If you have enabled the key sequence, you can kill X with
CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE, which will blank the screen, it'll do some flashy
stuff and after a moment give you a normal Gui login screen.

Not sure the process on F22 to enable it, but on my  Centos-6 box
(and I think C7, though I haven't just now verified this), on the
SYSTEM / PREFERENCES / KEYBOARD menu, click the "layouts" tab, click
the "Layout Options" button, and you'll get a long list of things you
can control about how the keyboard works. ONE of them is "Key sequence
to kill the X server". That's the one you want to enable so you can
kill X as I described above. I think on recent Fedoras it's a similar
process to find it, but my memory is kinda hazy on that.
