Hi,

Make sure that your system starts at runlevel 3 on
boot. If you start your machine with X11, chances are
that its runlevel is 5.

Check your /etc/inittab file and look for a line
with "initdefault" keyword:
id:3:initdefault:

If you start at runlevel 5, you should create a symbolic
link in  /etc/init.d/rc5.d

Hope this helps,
