Hi,

this is probably very obvious but how do you get Slackware to load
without logging into linux on the command line and then typing startx.
I have already disabled password for linux itself and used the
convenience menu in KDE control centre. I am using Lilo as boot loader
BTW.

Change the default runlevel from 3 to 4 in /etc/inittab

Things will not become obvious until you gain a much better
understanding of the various parts of what we call a GNU/Linux
distribution. If you want to gain such understanding, stick with it,
you're in the right place. Otherwise you might want to consider distros
which are designed to do more for you, and are marketed toward the
great MS-Windows market.

Everything is obvious when you know where to look.
