Type startx

That will start the Xserver. If you want the gui to start when you start the machine, you'll have to edit this line in you /etc/inittab file: id:x:initdefault:

Change whatever x is in the above line to 5, so the new line would read:

id:5:initdefault:

Be very careful. DO NOT CHANGE IT TO 6.

AUTHCONFIG-GTK(8)					      System Manager's Manual						 AUTHCONFIG-GTK(8)

NAME
authconfig-gtk, system-config-authentication - GUI utility for configuring user identity and system authentication services SYNOPSIS
authconfig-gtk [--nox] [--updateall] [--firstboot] DESCRIPTION
authconfig-gtk provides a simple graphical user interface for configuring user identity and system authentication services. It provides basic configuration options to handle NIS, LDAP, Kerberos 5, and Winbind client configuration. OPTIONS
If the --nox option is specified, authconfig command line utility is run instead of the GUI. The --updateall option forces overwriting of all configuration files not only the files affected by the changes made in the user interac- tion with the GUI. This option can be useful in case the configuration files are broken by manual editing. The --firstboot option is to be used only when firstboot utility runs the GUI during the first setup of the system after installation. RETURN CODES
authconfig-gtk returns 0 on success, non zero on error. SEE ALSO
