I'm not familiar with Incognito offhand but it sounds as if it's not automounting the drives. (This is different than detecting them.)
You should be able to mount them from the console with the standard mount command.
You can restart the X server with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace as well as what you mentioned. X should reread its configuration files on restart, so you should be able to perform any necessary reconfiguring steps, then restart the X server to test your changes.
Incognito may be using GDM/KDM (or a similar login manager), which would explain why X automatically restarts and doesn't die when you kill it. Shut down the login manager, then you should be able to kill X. (/etc/init.d/gdm stop is the command for Ubuntu; Incognito should be similar. KDM/XDM/etc will be similar.)
As a final option, try switching to runlevel 1 -- on Debian-based distros, runlevels 2-5 are all graphical multiuser runlevels (they're configured identically). init 1 should do this for you."
