My QQ group of friends found that, in slackware 13 in
/ etc / rc.d / rc.local executable
And / etc / inittab for the init 3

Then add a line in the rc.local
startx
You can not enter any password to enter kde

At this time id is 0
users is the root root
home is /

Why??

rc.local is run by root which would then run startx.

You have to enable kdm by setting your inittab to 4.

If you don't want a graphical login manager and you want your user to log directly into their chosen window manager, then you put startx in their profile.

The two files are .bashrc and .profile in the user's home directory. One will get launched every time you spawn a new console like xterm, and one will only run when you are actually logging into a new console.

Which is which I don't know. You would be better off having a check in the script to see if xorg is already running.

Hi,

You are wanting a 'X' login?

The default runlevel is '3' for Slackware. If you want a 'X' login then switch to '4';

Quote:

excerpt from '/etc/inittab';

# inittab This file describes how the INIT process should set up
# the system in a certain run-level.

# These are the default runlevels in Slackware:
# 0 = halt
# 1 = single user mode
# 2 = unused (but configured the same as runlevel 3)
# 3 = multiuser mode (default Slackware runlevel)
# 4 = X11 with KDM/GDM/XDM (session managers)
# 5 = unused (but configured the same as runlevel 3)
# 6 = reboot

Just modify the '/etc/inittab'.
