Greetings,

I am a bit lost. Never had this before with RHEL 5. Installed RHEL 6
normally, added gnome and KDE, RHEL starts in text mode only.

Reintstalled, same problem.

I need to point out that this is a vmware installtion, *but* as I said
never happenned with RHEL 5.

Tried grub-install etc. No luck. startx or startX neither.

Glad if someone knows how to solve this.

The first thing to do is to try the startx, then have a look at the
/var/log/Xorg.0.log file and see what it has to say.

If this is an upgrade, keep in mind there was a big change in X between
RHEL5 and RHEL6.  You might even try renaming your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
file and trying the startx again.  The new X often doesn't need an
xorg.conf and will actually have issues if it tries to obey what's in
an older xorg.conf.

Give it a try and let us know.
