Init 5 starts X and a GUI-type login process.  When you log in, it
starts your GUI desktop.    In runlevel 3, you log in in character
mode, but 'startx'  will start X, then your desktop and after that it
is all the same.  Except that with the startx approach, if anything
goes wrong you can <ctl><alt><backspace> to kill the X session and you
will drop back to the parent character mode login where you can check
the logs and try again.
