No, you don't. Pretty much the only time you *have* to reboot a Linux
system is when you update the kernel.

Are you running any [k|g|x]dm? They tend to default to something like
that. gdm, for example, defaults to "Gnome". Check your
/etc/gdm/Sessions directory (or similar for other dm's). Some overwrite
the users defaults or rather ignore them.
In case it helps, here's what's going on on my system:
[jschauma@www Sessions]$ pwd
/etc/gdm/Sessions
[jschauma@www Sessions]$ ls -l
