Thanks for answering and thanks for the advice, most of which I agree with,
since I've been running sd since 2006.Since I am now 84, I'm not as good at
figuring things out as I used to be, so if anyone else can offer help, I'd be

Other distros use level 5 to start the GUI; Debian however has levels
2 through 5 which are identical. It is up to the sysadmin (you) to
