When I installed CentOS it was with an old monitor, and it turned out that I could not get system-config-display to set it up correctly. I bought a new monitor and now all is well, except...
It still boots to a text login, and I have to startx. What do I need to edit to change this? Thanks

Edit /etc/inittab and set 5 as the initdefault: id:5:initdefault:

Thanks to all who answered. I couldn't remember which file to find this setting. All is well, now.

Change the initdefault value from 3 to 5 in /etc/inittab
At your next reboot, you will start in X.
