Others have already posted about how to change your runlevel, but I would like to add a bit of my own experiences here too, for your consideration. Just yesterday I upgraded to the latest RHL9 kernel and I too have the latest NVidia drivers installed. Upon reboot into the new kernel I found the NVidia drivers would not work, but that was no surprise. I had to run the NVidia driver installation again, for the new kernel, and in the process it had to recompile itself to fit the new kernel. All went well and I was immediately able to startx successfully. The thing is.... I believe it was much less bother for me to do this since I always boot into the Text mode first, then Startx. You might want to consider doing the same if you are going to stick with NVidia drivers. -- Dennis C.
