No there is no error. With runlevel it says something like:

2 3

(I am not at home now)

But everything else stays. I thought runlevel 3 mens, there is no 
graphic support over startx. Only the command line.

The NVIDIA|Geforce readme files tells to install there rpm's without an 
"x grafikserver", what is the default.

By the side, some background about runlevel i have from opensuse, there 
it was very easy to handle these. They had even a GUI where you can 
enable or disable specific sources to runlevels. I would liked to use 
such a gui also in Gnewsense, if it is possible or to now how i could do 
this without a gui.

Thanks for your help in my problem.
