I'm not sure what you are asking.

Do you want a graphical login screen?

Or do you just want to start using X (The graphical portion)?

If #2, make sure you type xorgconfig,
and then when you have set it up, type startx

If #1, its something else. (I cannot remember at the moment-truthfatal said it)
