Go to /etc/X11/config and uncomment the last line that says #start-xdm This will automaticly start xdm on the login. Also, make sure that there is a symbolic link to execute xdm in /etc/rcX.d , where X is a runlevel number. (link should be present in all of them and look like this lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Nov 1 17:25 S99xdm -> ../init.d/xdm) Andrew
