Graphical login

Hi all,

How can I get the graphical login back for Red Hat 8.0? When I installed 7.3 I decided to use the CLI login as opposed to the GUI login, and it's still the same for RH 8.0 (I just upgraded from 7.3 to 8.0--so that makes sense I guess). I looked both in RH 7.3 (when I still had it installed) and now in 8.0 and I can't find the spot where I can change it. Thanks for the help

under slackware 8.1, editing /etc/inittab will allow for a graphical logon, changing the default run level from 3 to 4 (or 5). If red hat is anything like slackware, inittab is what you want to configure... it shoudl be the first option to change.

Changing the runlevel to 5 did the trick. Thanks for the help.
