Which distribution are you running? In Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, the
command to configure X11 is redhat-config-xfree86, in RHEL 4 the command
is system-config-display. There used to be a command called xf86config
which may still exist in some Linux distributions. If you can post
which distribution you are using, someone may be able to help you
configure your X11 display.

Okay, I understand that but how do I re-configure X11 so that I can get back
to having windowing interface. I want to get back to that part of it.
Thanks

1 is single user mode (lo login, no network).
3 is multi-user mode with network, no X11
5 is multi-user mode with network and X11
1 - Single user mode
3 - Full multiuser mode
5 - X11
When you reboot with runlevel 3, you should get a login prompt in a text
window. At that point the server is running and on the network. You
can login on the console, you can login remotely (e.g., ssh), but there
is no windowing interface.
You shouldn't have to remove xfree, you can re-configure X11 without
removing it. If you really want to remove xfree, it would help to know
which distribution you are running.
