Subject: Boot to GUI mode not CLI

 

I have just installed RHEL 5

 

When I boot the console used the command line interface not the GUI.

 

I can start the GUI manually using startx but if I logout in the GUI it
returns to the command line.

 

How do I get it to boot automatically to GUI mode?
