> Can somebody help me stop and restart X? I'm using kdm for login. Just in case your X-Server is still responding AT ALL you can always try hitting Ctrl+Alt+Backspace to kill it. This will work up to a certain level of "hanging".
Then simply restart it by typing "startx". Otherwise ssh into your box and use "ps -ax | grep X" or "ps -e | grep X" to get X's PID and then kill it using "kill". kill has a priority switch. So "kill [PID]" might not work. However "kill -9 [PID]" will kill about anything on the spot. If the -9-switch fails to kill X you are having more serious troubles.
