hello,

 

Since my mandrake update installed the following rpms on my machine, the sound of ny system was becoming shabby. so i tried to remove the packages and since then i cannot get into my system. tells me that my username account is lacking something.

and then after loading up, i get the black screen with : Login on top left.

 

how can i do to restore my session as it was before. Help Please !!!!!!!!!!!!!

A urpmi xorg should get you up and running again, although it might prompt for something, you might need to put urpmi xorg-server, or something, but once that's back on, you'll get the gui again.
