Talking Fedora Core 6 starts in command line

a pretty simple question...theres got to be a command to start it up in the GUI from the command line, or is there a way that i can get it to never boot up in command line again?

Thanks.

Execute startx command to load GUI.
Edit /etc/inittab file to set GUI as default.
Open /etc/inittab file and replace this
Code:
id:3:initdefault:
with this
Code:
id:5:initdefault:
