Thanks! I forgot all about /etc/inittab; haven't had to mess with it
since my LinuxPPC days ;-). After channging the default run level to 5
and restarting, the system runs the graphical startup stuff and then
drops me back into tty1. I can hit CTRL+ALT+F7 to get the graphical
login screen. What do I need to change to make this automatic?
(Boy, I really wish the graphical installer had worked...)

Eric
