Well, I got X working in my fresh woody install, but there are a few
rinkles.
1) I want to boot to console mode and call x with startx.
Currently, I get popped right into X.
I thought this could be contolled by setting the defalult run level
/etc/inittab But I see nothing in there that looks likely.
In fact it claims the default is runlevel 2. Or is runlevel 2 X. I
don't think so.
In my redhat dealings it was possible to set default to runlevel 5
which force boot to bring up X. setting runlevel 3 gave you a console
login.
Where is this choice made on debian?
Run level 2 is standard, but if you've installed xdm or something of that
kind, then it will launch you strait into X, that's what' those packages do.
