No effect whatsoever. A "higher" runlevel is not necessarily "farther from the ground" and thus less stable in any way. Also note that the X Window System (aka "X" but never "X Windows", there is no "s" in it) is just a GUI... you may find X unstable but the box itself is fine. Are you having problems with the whole server, or just with X? Different runlevels *can* be more or less stable than others, depending entirely on what services are running in each. Use "chkconfig --list" to see most of the init services and which runlevel each operates on. Also use "ps auxw | less" to see the processes operating at that time. -- Rodolfo J.
