This is pretty frustrating...sigh, still no progress. I used sudo vi to
insert and save what you suggested into /etc/rc.local. Then rebooted, still
coming up to terminal on boot.
Is there any harm in using sudo service lxdm start longterm? I was hoping to

I didn't see anything that said "text" in /etc/default/grub. This is what it
looks like:
# If you change this file, run 'update-grub' afterwards to update
# /boot/grub/grub.cfg.
# For full documentation of the options in this file, see:
# info -f grub -n 'Simple configuration'

I do have it on a USB drive, made with Unetbootin. Same results when I try to

the web). Unetbootin supports non-free distros, though.
There's a version http://www.aligunduz.org/FUSBi/ that doesn't list non-free
