If you've installed the X11 packages, then you should just need to 
change your default "init" level from 3 to 5.  Look at your /etc/inittab 
file.  Of course, if your X server isn't configured properly (and it'll 
tell you if its having problems starting) then you'll have another 
problem to fix.  Luckily, you can try starting a manual X server from a 
logged in user account via the "startx" command to make sure it will 
work properly.
