Well, that might be possible, of course, but I'm almost sure I'm not. ;)

If you look into the config file it tells you something else:

$ grep -B 2 Terminate /etc/kde/kdm/kdmrc
# Restart instead of resetting the local X-server after session exit.
# Use it if the server leaks memory etc. Default is false
#TerminateServer=true

Clearly, a reset is the default, not a restart - unless the comments in 
kdmrc are obsolete. ;-)

What does "OP" stand for? If you are referring to Martin's box I would 
answer "yes" to both questions, since he mentioned kdm in his initial 
post.
