Ben,

No. Whatever was the installation default.

# These are the default runlevels in Slackware:
#   0 = halt
#   1 = single user mode
#   2 = unused (but configured the same as runlevel 3)
#   3 = multiuser mode (default Slackware runlevel)
#   4 = X11/Wayland with SDDM/KDM/GDM/XDM (session managers)
#   5 = unused (but configured the same as runlevel 3)
#   6 = reboot

Huh! I have always used runlevel 3; wasn't aware of 4 and that's what should
be used on this laptop.

# Default runlevel. (Do not set to 0 or 6)
id:3:initdefault:

On the laptop, /etc/inittab shows:
id:4:initdefault:

Thanks,

Rich
