I got X windows running, with default window manager fvwm, but next time I logged in it didn't stop at the commandline --- went straight into graphics mode and gave me a login window for fvwm. In Red Hat, this is controlled by /etc/inittab, which sets the initial runlevel to 3. 5 is required to launch X. In Debian, inittab has default runlevel set to 2, so why is it launching straight into fvwm? Does anyone know what config file needs to be changed so I can login to commandline only? Also when I exit from fvwm, refuses to exit to the commandline. I'm back at that darn login window again. Even <ctrl-alt-backspace> won't get me out. regards, Barry Kauler -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] < /dev/null
