Problem in Logging in to fedora core 6
Hello friends
I installed fedora core 6 on my new laptop of Dell After initial booting it asks me for username and password. On successfully receiving the username and password, it does not go to the GUI and runs in text mode giving me the prompt like.. root...# What command (or sequence of command )should I write here to enter graphical user mode. Please help. Thanks Ajeya. |
Hi, Ajeya. When it asks for username and password is it in graphical mode or already in text mode? Once you're logged in, you can try the command
Code:
startx Code:
id:5:initdefault: |

Your video adapter is not configured correctly. Post the output of the command lspci. This will tell us the chipset of the video adapter installed in your laptop.
The command to configure the video adapter is system-config-display. |
