Hello: To automatically start X at boot you need to have a symbolic link from your /etc/rc2.d to your /etc/init.d/xdm. You have to make sure you have a /etc/init.d/xdm.
Mine is like this (use the ln command) S99xdm -> ../init.d/xdm Also you can use the xf86config facility and answer yes when asked if you want to automatically start X at boot time. regards, ---- From: Victor Torrico <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Debian User Community <debian-user@lists.debian.org> Date: Friday, September 12, 1997 5:23 AM Subject: X boot not automatic >Hello, > >Installed X from debian 1.31 CD. > >Upon boot the screen comes up with the console login prompt.
