[linux-help] Re: Runlevels, and graphical logins

["Ivan Trail" <itrail@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

When the system is booting, it reports that it is entering runlevel5.

But I don't get the associated graphical login.  It boots as if it is
actually booting to runlevel3.

Thus I am interested in changing what the runlevel actually is.  I shall
have to check out the /etc/rc.d  and see what happens.

Thanks for the help.
Ivan
