RedHat 8 help!
Hey how is it going you guys?
I have a little poblem here. Just finished installing RedHat 8 on my computer here. Everything throughout the installitation worked fine exepct to the point where it asked what screen resolution I wish to use so, I selelted 1240 by 780... then the computer froze. After rebooting it just dumps me to the command prompt. I don't know what command it need to enter to get the GUI up!? :confused:
anyone knows? I hate to run the setup again which took me more than 3hrs. :mad:
Thanks for any upcomming help. :smoov:

startx will start the gui (X windows).
If you want it to start at boot, open the file /etc/inittab and find the line that says:
id:5:initdefault:
(if it says 5, you're good. 3 will bring you to the command prompt again at boot).
If you need to fix the video config, type:
Xconfigurator
at the command prompt and it'll take you back through the setup.
I haven't messed with 8, this stuff might have changed, but I doubt it.
