It may be that you are not booting in to the right "run level".
Try logging in to the computer and type telinit 5

Wait for a few seconds and if a graphical boot starts, then this is the problem
(probably starting in run level 3).

To make this a permanent change, fire up a terminal and edit /etc/inittab.

The line that looks like

id:3:initdefault:

Change it to

id:5:initdefault:

Save the file, reboot, and all should be hunky dorey : )

If any of this is beyond you, then let us know and we will give more details,
but I don't want to type too much if it isn't nessasery : )

No idea, hopefully some one else can help you with this.

Your welcome.
