This is not the other OS you must know, there's a method which IMHO is a little bit smarter :) try running /etc/init.d/xdm restart as root. not from within X might be an idea :) you can switch to your virtual consoles with Ctrl+Alt+F1 trough F6. Back again with Alt+F7. the /etc/init.d/<file> start|stop|reload|restart..... method works for many other things too, like the inetd, the lpd, et alii.
