278 What Do I Do Now?

Editing /etc/inittab – The ﬁle /etc/inittab is used to, among other things, determine the

system’s default run level. We need to change the default run level from 3 to 5; therefore, we’ll need

to edit /etc/inittab. Using the text editor of your choice, change this line in /etc/inittab:

id:3:initdefault:

When you’re done, it should look like this:

id:5:initdefault:

Please Note: Make sure you change only the number 3 to be 5! Do not change anything else,

otherwise your Red Hat Linux system may not boot at all! When you’ve made the change, exit the

editor, and use this command to review your handiwork:

less /etc/inittab

(Press the

Space to page through the ﬁle; Q will exit.) If everything looks OK, it’s time to reboot.

Use the shutdown command to properly shut down your system, and you’re done!

Exiting X

When you’re done, and you’d like to leave X, select the GNOME foot on the panel bar, choose Log

out and answer Yes to conﬁrm your decision. You will then be logged out of your system.

Please Note: If you’re running GNOME as your desktop environment, all programs that were cur-

rently running will be restarted when you log back in.

Changing Your Desktop

You can use the Switchdesk feature to change out your desktop environment. Switchdesk will

present a screen which allows you to switch between any desktop environments that you may have

installed on your system. You will then be asked to exit and restart X. You will see your new desktop

of choice after X has restarted.

To use the Switchdesk feature you can type switchdesk at the command line of an Xterm. If you

are using GNOME, click on the GNOME foot, choose Run Programs and type switchdesk.

Virtual Consoles and X

Note that even if you’re running X, you still have access to the regular character-cell user interface.

That’s because Red Hat Linux uses virtual consoles while X is running. To switch to a virtual console,
