Move the /etc/rc2.d/S99xdm link to /etc/rc2.d/s99xdm. You could also set up a Red Hat-like system if you want; have a link to xdm in /etc/rc5.d, and no such link in /etc/rc3.d, and the two directories otherwise identical. Then you can use runlevels 3 and 5 as you do in other distributions, and Debian won't override your choice. Debian's general runlevel policy is to provide a basic default that system administrators can modify as they like. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
