    COOL! I've been running vnc for a *long* time, but didn't realize I could
    dispense with the runlevel 5 on the server.

    Just to make sure that I'm doing this right, I should go into /etc/inittab
    and change:

    id:5:initdefault:

    to

    id:3:initdefault:

    is that correct?

    Thanks!
