I wanted to add that once the desired display manager has been added to rc.conf, that the display manager can also be run using: /etc/init.d/xdm start It can be stopped by replacing "start" with, you guessed it, "stop". (and it can be restarted with "restart") Also, "KDM" above should be in lower case, i.e.: kdm > rc-update is the prefered method for adding startup stuff to these > runlevels. More services can be added in the same manner, for example, > to add NFS and TFTP daemon support, you would enter: > rc-update add nfs default > rc-update add in.tftpd That last line should be: rc-update add in.tftpd default |
