On a system running the KDE Display Manager, when is the /etc/kde4/kdm/Xreset script automatically executed?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

The /etc/kde4/kdm/Xreset script is a script that runs as root after a user's X session exits. It can be used to perform some cleanup tasks or other actions that need to be done when the user logs out of the graphical environment. For example, it can reassign the ownership of the console to root, or shut down the system if desired. The /etc/kde4/kdm/Xreset script is part of the KDE Display Manager (kdm), which is a graphical login manager for X. KDM can be configured to run this script by setting the Reset key in the [X-*-Core] section of the /etc/kde4/kdm/kdmrc configuration file.Reference:

I thought it was when KDM starts, but I guess not.

It's executed when a user's X session exits.

I vaguely remember that Xreset is executed when a user's session ends, so I would probably go with B, but I need to double-check that.

I’m a bit confused about this one. I thought Xreset was tied to X crashing, but I can't recall the details clearly.

I remember practicing a question about KDM, and I feel like it was related to when KDM starts. So, I might lean towards A.

I think the Xreset script runs when a user's X session exits, but I'm not completely sure. It might be A instead.
