Re: How to run gdm.



Assuming you already hve gdm installed and just want to have it run, run
"telinit 5" as root to change to run level 5 wich should cause gdm to
start, giving you a graphical login.

To revert, run "telinit 3". You can always do Ctrl+Alt+F1 to get back to
a console while running X.
