No. If you remember being asked a million questions about your
monitor and video card during the install you have PROBABLY set up
X.
To run the X server just type startx
or if you prefer /usr/X11R6/bin/startx
In any event, take a look at this file and see it has a time stamp
approximate to the time which you installed RH 5
Ditto for /etc/X11/X and see what this file is linked to
