  To do this you must change your run level from 3 to 5.  Just edit your
/etc/inittab file to read:

id:5:initdefault:

Instead of

id:3:initdefault:

  After you edit the file, either reboot or from a console logged in as
root type init 5.

Hi all

after compiling my own kernel the YDL3.0 system runs fine on the UMAX
Pulsar.

Now I want to have GDM running immediately instead of the text login
after boot.

Where is the switch?
