I don't even think that single user mode is neccessary.  Just make sure
you don't run xdm or whatever on the next boot (either by disabling it
or booting into the aforementioned single-user mode) and reconfigure it
exactly as Scott said.  I'd certainly test it out using startx first,
but then you can simply reenable xdm or whatever, without even
rebooting.
