Dear all,
I am desperately trying to write a program to log out a user from a  linux
KDE/GNOME X window session.In trying to do this, I am killing all the
users' processes using kill(pid_t pid, SIGKILL) to all the users
processes. The user's processes actually do get killed but Xwindows
refuses to completely die out. An x server (?) is still running somewhere
in the background, and I WANT to completely stop it so that another user
can have a chance to login and run X windows.

Basically I amtrying to log out a user from an Xsession.Are there any
available signals that X windows catches that makes it to shutdown
correctly? Is there some order of how you kill the x processes? I am doing
a linear sequential traversal of the users processes and killing them all.
Is this the right approach to take?
