FYI, Debian and (IIRC) Ubuntu don't use runlevel 5 normally. They normally boot to runlevel 2, and use a service to start/stop an X display manager. So, I think the equivalent command would be: /etc/init.d/gdm start I could be wrong, this is from memory, and I haven't used Ubuntu in a while, either. IIRC, Ubuntu replaced the standard SysV init with some new thing, and it may not even have initscripts anymore. -- Ben _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
