Well it could be two things - either you didn't get your XWindows 
configured, or you didn't choose to have it start up in graphical mode.

After you log in at the console, try typing "startx" and see if it loads 
up the graphical user interface. If it does, at least the graphics is 
ok. In that case, you can make it start up automatically in graphical 
mode by logging in as root, editing the file /etc/inittab and setting 
the line which says "id:3:initdefault:" into "id:5:initdefault:".

If the graphics is not configured you can run (as root) drakconf from 
the command line to set up the display.
