AlwaysRestartServer=true
but this settings was always that way in my case

Have found some soulution:
in gdm.conf set vtallocation=false and alwayslogincurrentsession=true(do not 
think this is needed)
After that, it's impossible to login the same user: 
if you try to login the same user ,after filling in username and password,you 
get to see the username box again.So that is ok.(But there is no double login 
warning,  when this is set to true in gdm.conf)
But  I can only make these eco-friendly multiseat computers(up to twelve users 
on one box) with gdm 2.18.And it is very hard to downgrade gdm in the new 
9.10.
