Sounds like you have "auto login" turned on. Go to the Mandrake Control Center. Under Boot, turn off the Auto Login option. Then reboot the box. It should now come up to a login screen. From that, you can select the different window managers from the pull down menu.

I'd rather it would stop at the console and not start up KDE or Gnome or anything. After I do my console thing, I'd bring up whatever WM I wanted by hand. I am anxious to try out some new less resource intensive WM's. Thanks.
