    Thanks for the advice. The problem seems to be
    elsewhere. I typed 'startX' after the bootprocedure
    and after logging in but got several lines like this:

    "Error while loading shared libraries: LibXmuu.so.1:
    cannot open shared object file: no such file or
    directory"

    I also checked /etc/inittab: the runlevel is already 5
    so I didnt change anything.

    Seems like I have to reinstall something... :(

    Btw everyhing worked fine just after installing the
    dloaded version (core1) of Fedora. I got this problem
    after running the up2date tool...

    Tia,
    Marc
