Try this
Log into your system as root and do the following:
The following makes a backup first, in case we make any errors
# cp -a /etc/inittab /etc/inittab.original
Now we change the file
# sed -i [EMAIL PROTECTED]:3:initdefault:@id:5:initdefault:@g
/etc/inittab
Now we check and make sure
# cat /etc/inittab | grep id | grep initdefault
You should see a line something like the following
id:5:initdefault:
That should be fine.
Once you reboot your machine, it should come up with GDM instead of the
command line.
