GUI problem
Hi friends!!
I am a rookie .who just installed CENTOS 5, but i am unable to access my GUI, i landed on to the command prompt and with the help of google was able to install gdm, but now when i try to log in to my id it gives a message " my session has lasted for less than 10 sec' plss help me out thanks in advance |
Instead of using gdm, first type "startx" at the command prompt. This will start the GUI, then you'll be able to set up the configuration to your liking using the menus.
PS Of course, log in before typing startx. |
cent is one of the easiest to install
http://www.centos.org/ http://wiki.centos.org/ what is your hardware ? this sounds like your 3d card might be the problem your specs how much ram ? the cpu ? your 3d card ( if you have one)? if not the built in chip on your MOBO ( if you have one ) ? also for a very new user i would recommend installing Ubuntu or mint cent is targeted for the office and can be a bit hard to get some new things installed |
thanks for the reply

i am installing VICIDIALNOW which installs centos by itself. can you help pls.......... |
so you are building "full Call Center Suite System"
http://vicidialnow.blogspot.com/ and NOT a home system??? so this is going to be a call center and not a home office or desktop install if call center then YOU DO NOT NEED A GUI. if a home desktop i would put ubuntu on it also with a cent based distro you WILL NEED TO USE the pae kernel to be able to use all of that 4 gig of ram |
thanks John
