efb729,
Try the following:
# /usr/dt/bin/dtlogin -e (this enables the CDE desktop)
# reboot
(when it boots up you may need to wait a minute or two before the GUI starts. Be patient and do not hit enter or it will take you to a command line login screen.)
Good Luck! Have a Great Day!!

If you mean multiple screens I think /usr/dt/config/Xservers is the file that you're looking for. See the comment at the bottom of the file. Annihilannic.
