For me, include or not include the easier configuration to boot in X or
not is hard to say,both way have benefits :-)

What I did is just :

1.check which is the default runlevel of Ubuntu system
in /etc/inittab,normally 2,but in my pc 3 ,like this :

# The default runlevel.
id:3:initdefault:

2.then go to the directory of such runlevel,in my case :
# cd /etc/rc3.d 

3.as root,change the file S99gdm to K99gdm :
# mv S99gdm K99gdm

4.then log out from X or reboot.

that's it.
hope that it should work.
