Hi there,
I installed openSUSE 11 on my wife's old laptop. The laptop was too old and too slow so I decided to put install Virtual Box 1.6.2 on my PC running WinXP SP3.
After I installed Virtual Box 1.6.2, I installed openSUSE 11 on my virtual machine (guest). Installation went fine but when I boot using the default option (openSUSE ..blah blah), I got a classic UNIX logon screen instead of a GUI:
Welcome to openSUSE 11.0 (i586) - Kernel 2.6.25.5-1.1-pae (tty1).

Yes, that is all I can see. Where is the GUI?
If I boot the machine using safe mode, I can see the GUI/Logon screen.
So what have I done wrong?
I am a newbie on Linux and my UNIX is skill is quite limited. Your help is very appreciated.
That's not unix, it is linux in text mode. You can log-in as root, then run: init 3 init 5 and see what errors you get, if any. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
