text login

[Sameer Kamat]

Hi
    I have the default in inittab to run at  5(GUI mode). It works fine, but
if I hit CTRL+ALT+F1 I do
not see anything but a black screen. If I set the inittab default to
runlevel 3,
then I do get to a text login screen, however when I run startx to get to
the GUI I lose the text console.

Does anyone have any thoughts on what I should be doing to fix this ?

Thanks,
