Well, I did try it and it worked for me.  I vaguely remember reading
that this is not the recommended way to do it (due to lack of elegance
is how I read it).  It seems that runlevel 5 should work but it just
doesn't for me.  I get a idfferent login screen and everything... 
<sigh>

Thanks for your help though.  Any other ideas would also be
appreciated.  For now rc.local seems to work for my configuration....
