Thanks, guys, but it's not in /boot/grub/grub.conf. I'm sorry I didn't 
list every file I've looked at, but I have looked at everything in 
/etc/rc.d. I ran these commands:

 sudo grep -iIrs gdm /etc/ | less -iM ,          nothing applicable
 sudo grep -iIrs xdm /etc/ | less -iM ,          nothing applicable
 sudo grep -iIrs 'telinit 5' /etc/ | less -iM      nothing applicable
 sudo grep -iIrs telinit /etc/ | less -iM           nothing applicable
 sudo grep -iIrs 'runlevel 5' /etc/ | less -iM   nothing applicable
 sudo grep -iIrs runlevel /etc/ | less -iM        nothing applicable

/boot/grub/grub.conf :

title Fedora 9 (2.6.25.3-18.fc9.i686)
        root (hd0,4)
        kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.25.3-18.fc9.i686 ro 
root=UUID=2b61feae-2acf-4466-b0a8-2964e18fbe11 vga=0x31A
        initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.25.3-18.fc9.i686.img
        savedefault


I had not thought of grub.conf, but as I said, it seems to boot into 
runlevel 3, and then immediately change to runlevel 5. I've also checked 
the installed bash and profile files. Of course these don't run until 
after one has logged in.
