here
on mandrake 9.2, grub bootloader, pentium 1.7, dualboot with winXP.
hmmm, not much else i can explain really... i chose linux-nonfb from grub since "linux" always gave me a black screen and stops.
only one process failed to run, which is mailman. (whatever it is) then devfs got an [OK}, then wine....i never got to see what it got. right after the message about starting wine i get thrown to a pure console, no X. i had to "startx" myself. it wasn't like this before. what should i do? thanks!
EDIT: i tried interactive startup, and skipped wine, but the same thing still happened.
