SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION
     gdm-restart stops and restarts GDM by sending a  HUP  signal
     to  the  GDM daemon. This command immediately terminates all
     sessions and logs out users currently logged in with GDM.

     gdm-safe-restart stops and restarts GDM by  sending  a  USR1
     signal  to  the  GDM daemon. GDM is restarted as soon as all
     users log out.

     gdm-stop stops GDM by sending a TERM signal to the GDM  dae-
     mon.
