I run CDE, in such case you would be logged in with
option>session>failsafe, log out and see what options you have there,
it normally "remembers" the last one you used, but may be wrong,
between the intel, hp, alpha, sparc et cetera I may mix a CDE with
another one ...
If I find a minute, I'll fire mine up, is a 5.1 but should be the same
or similar. Had dec windows on ultrix, but the system is long gone,
don't know if I still have the image to run virtualized ...

Logging in on the console of a Tru64 V5.0 machine
I ended up in an xterm terminal and nothing else.
The usual "new DECwindows" desktop was gone.
Any ideas where to look for a fix?
The system is an AlphaServer 800 that had been power
off for a year now.
