Howdy all...
I just finished installing Mandrake 8.1. I must say it was one of the easiest installs I've ever done. After running KDE 1.x for so long, KDE 2.x is really nice!
Anyway, I need it to act as an X server and allow remote logins. When it boots up in runlevel 5 gdm is not running. I have to switch to another terminal (which was kind of cool to discover, I didn't know you could do that from within X) and launch it, or boot up in runlevel 3 and launch it from the command line. Is there anyway to have runlevel 5 launch gdm instead of the standard kde/gnome login? Or, am I better off setting it to runlevel 3 and adding a link in rc3.d to launch it automatically. (The second method just sounds ugly. I havn't tried it so I don't know if it would even work.)
Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
