Michael,
Take a look at /etc/inittab. The line that starts X should be
something like:
# Run xdm in runlevel 5
x:5:respawn:/usr/bin/X11/xdm -nodaemon
The command may be different depending on what X display manager you
run, but most of it will be the same. (This is from 5.2 running xdm,
you may be running kdm, or gdm instead of xdm...)
