I finally got X to work in Slackware. *claps*

Does anyone know what I have to do so I can have X start automatically when I start my computer?

Edit your /etc/inittab file so that the default runlevel line reads:
id:3:initdefault:
instead of
id:5:initdefault:

Wait, don't you have that backwards? Shouldn't it be Runlevel 5 instead of 3?

Actually for me it was 4. Thanks for the help.

Yes, that is what I meant to say but put it backwards; also, my apologies to split097. It is four in Slackware, 5 in Mandrake.
