You don't have to reboot to restart the X server. You have at least
two easy methods at your disposal to do so:

1. C-A-Backspace (that's Control-Alt-Backspace to non-Emacs folks)

2. /etc/init.d/gdm restart (replace gdm with your display manager)

I perform these after logging out in order to save my session.
