Description of problem: While installing RHEL 6.1, add an option to have Linux autostart X. Default to "Yes" for desktop, but allow server builds to be autostart X (just as was default in RHEL 5.4) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
As long as you install the xorg-x11-server-Xorg package and something that provides "service(graphical-login)", anaconda will set up X to automatically start. What are you doing that doesn't meet those criteria?
I chose to build a VM server as the base, then had to choose X Window System as one of the additional packages to get X installed.
Do you have the xorg-x11-xdm package installed?
I don't remember what sub-packages were selected at that point. I've since reformatted and started over several times, with the Desktop core option being selected since then. After I get done fixing the software RAID-1 problems and get the system going, I'll likely be doing one final rebuild from the ground up and can do some poking around then.
If you can provide more feedback to further debug this issue, please post it in a comment and reopen the bug.
