Change to GUI as default login
 

I want to make my system load in GUI to login. I set Login Manager in KDE, and found in google inittab. There maybe I have to change run level from 3 to 4 (X11 with KDE), but I am not sure to change the file. I am afraid to broke my system.

Do I have to change run level in inittab to boot in GUI?

Other way is to make image of the partition and to try it...

Yes, inittab is usually the way to do what you want.

Edit the file as root, and look for a line like this:

And change the 3 to a 4:

Easiest way is to edit it with kwrite, in the terminal enter:
(enter root password)
and change the 3 to 4 in this line:
Faster typers! I'm sick of 'em! :)

Life isn't easy :)

Thank you both!

Life's not easy, no; but that runlevel fix was, huh?

:) Happy trails.

Sasha

Yeah it was, but it log me automatically. I was thinking that I will have to type user and password. I just want to omit startx.

There is no full happiness :)

That's something you need to configure in the "Settings" manager somewhere. I am surprised that it defaulted to logging you in automatically :scratch:, but it certainly isn't the way I would leave it.

Using KDE, Go into the settings manager (usually as root, using `kdesu` from a console) and check the settings for your Login Splash and/or Login Manager. It should be relatively easy to find these settings if you poke around enough.

I'm no longer using KDE, or if I were, I'd trace the steps for you. If you cannot find the right items to fix this, let us know. Someone will help.

Don't know why, but kdesu don't work in my machine. Anyway I know what you are saying. Auto-login was not default - I am too curious and click every option. Now I fix it and everything is ok.

First time is always hard.
