try the following: log in under text mode, and type "startx" (enter). This should load up graphics mode if graphics has been correctly configured. If it loads up correctly, the problem could be that you didn't select to start up in graphics mode. In that case, edit the file /etc/inittab, find the line which starts with ":id:", and change the "3" to "5".
If the graphics was not set up correctly (ie, if startx doesn't load the graphics environment) you may need to re-configure it. The standard Mandrake tool to do this is called "XFdrake". You will need to login as root to run this tool. Once in, follow the menus etc. to configure your graphics card, monitor etc. On Tli, 2004-01-06 at 16:21, Nicky Formosa wrote: > Hi All > > I've just installed Mandrake 9.2.
