The inittab step should work (see the other emails), but when you are
just out on the command line, and you don't have the graphical login,
try typing `startx' (without the quotes), this will start up an
XSession, and you don't have the RAM overhead of having an XServer going
all the time (depending on how much RAM you have, this could be a Bad
Thing (tm)).
