Hi, I need to start gdm by default on one of my boxes, which is currently booting into text mode.
I do have gdm installed: $ dpkg -l | grep gdm ii gdm 2.20.11-4 GNOME Display Manager It's still activated as the bootup service: % update-rc.d gdm defaults gdm already in /etc/runlevel.conf: No change. $ grep gdm /etc/runlevel.conf 01 0,1,6 - /etc/init.d/gdm 30 - 2,3,4,5 /etc/init.d/gdm which should mean business as usual to start it when system boot up. But my gdm is not starting. Actually, I'm been booting to text mode ever since I use Linux, and have forgot what trick I played to switch the booting mode (from gui to text) now. Here are my current (related) settings: $ grep initdefault /etc/inittab id:2:initdefault: $ tail -3 /boot/grub/menu.lst title os11 :: Debian kernel 2.6.35-grml64 kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.35-grml64 root=/dev/sda8 ro vga=normal initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.35-grml64 Where should I tweak? Is above enough?
