-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Kenny, or anyone else who knows, how is it that the default run level in /etc/inittab was still 2, but gdm/kdm/xdm started up anyway? I thought that run level 2 meant that the system was supposed to boot into text mode, and that the gui login managers weren't supposed to start up.
