If you use gdm (which comes with Gnome) as a login manager, you will be automatically logged into Gnome. To launch gdm at boot time, the following is necessary cp /usr/X11R6/etc/rc.d/gdm.sample /usr/local/etc/rc.d/gdm.sh chmod a+x /usr/local/etc/rc.d/gdm.sh You can also launch gdm manually on the console.
