[GhostBSD] Login

[m1pete]

Hi, I have just installed GhostBSD 3.0 64bit AMD on my PC. At login I type my user name, and then type my password at the PW promt. the problem starts after that, 2 or 3 lines of text follows then the PC needs me to type something, the problem is I don't know what to type to start the PC into a desktop screen. Can anyone help please.

Thanks...Peter...

the problem is I don't know what to type to start the PC into a desktop screen.

Does % startx help? If not, perhaps the people over at the GhostBSD Forums know a thing or two about GhostBSD and might be able to help.

Thanks @fonz, I will check out the GhostBSD forums, startx did not work.

Thanks,
Peter.

I've just installed GhostBSD and (as with the live CD) I needed to change the video driver from "raydeon" to "vesa" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf before X would start and show me a desktop after issuing [cmd=]startx[/cmd].
