dexter11 Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 What was that choice? Anyway try right clicking on the desktop. On some window managers that brings up the menu. You can reboot if you type su in the console, give the root password and then type reboot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
studmuffin007 Posted November 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 Thank for the reply ive done that and all i get is that blue screen and a white box in the corner with my name @local host thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyme Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 in that white box run the command: mcc This should bring up the Mandriva Control Center. From here you should be able to add/change your default DM (you're probably using auto login). I can't remember the specific place that these options are in and I'm at work...so hunt around a bit, but they should be there. You could also try just turning off auto login so that you are presented with GDM or KDM and can choose a DE under Sessions when you login.
