When you say "restarted" do you mean "rebooted?"  If so, you can also
check/set the service to on/off using the command line (i.e. regardless of
window manager) with chkconfig.  For example, to check if MySQL is set to
turn on automatically, login as root and type:
  chkconfig --list mysqld
To set mysqld to start automatically for runlevels 3, 4, and 5:
  chkconfig --level 345 mysqld on
To start the mysqld service manually in the current runlevel, type:
  service mysqld start

This works for RedHat Linux 7.x and maybe other linux distributions
(Mandrake, SuSE, etc.)

HTH,
