Quitting KDE (without restarting your computer)
You can log out and log back in with a different session
Also, to Quit the KDE Display Manager
Use the following command:
sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop
To restart kdm, enter:
sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart
or, if you have currently stopped kdm:
sudo kdm
You can also run the "GNOME Display Manager" (gdm) or the "X Display Manager" (xdm) with
sudo gdm
and
sudo xdm
(while no other display managers are running)
Note: The code "sudo /etc/init.d/" can be used with "kdm", "gdm", or "xdm", and is followed most commonly with "start", "stop", or "restart".
