Ydes, Mandrake is usually well behaved (if you don't miss the -
clearly and understandably worded - selection step whith installing)
and starts up with a txt console, asks for the login, and then starts
whatever GUI chosen with "startx".

And so did Debian - hitherto: Now, with a new install of DEB 3.0 it
goes mandatory into X, and does the login there too.

I could _not_ find the place anywhere in the various "init" files where
the runlevel, or the (automatic) startup of the window manager is
defined.  It's not where it was with earlier DEB installs.
Apparently, this has changed places, and there's no information in the
number of READMEs and the like (at least, not in one of those where I
tried to find it).
