Hello,
My system is setup to boot in runlevel 5, I would prefer it not. I have
changed it to runlevel 3 in the inittab and that works. BUT, if I then want
to start X manually from the command line, it just hangs.
I'm using "startx" after logging in. Is that the correct command?
Yes.
I have
been using RedHat since early 1996 and that always worked. Has something
changed?
Nope, not to my knowledge. You need to tell us what errors you find
in the /var/log/Xorg.0.log or /var/log/XFree86.0.log file. Listing
the hardware you have might also help.
