- From /etc/inittab:


#
#   0 - halt (Do NOT set initdefault to this)
#   1 - Single user mode
#   2 - Multiuser, without NFS (The same as 3, if you do not have networking)
#   3 - Full multiuser mode
#   4 - unused
#   5 - X11
#   6 - reboot (Do NOT set initdefault to this)

This means that in runlevel 5, the system will *always* be in the X
Window System, although, there is the ability to have it configured wrong
and then have a loop that is unstoppable... also, you still have the 6
VTs.  =)
