Try the command startx. If that fails try startkde.
Hi there,
Sometimes when i boot up pc, (set up to boot to knoppix default) it won't get past the graphical text and go onto kde.
It gets to a point where i can type in my id and password though, is there a comand i can type to move things on or is there a greater issue here.
If i reboot enough times or leave it long enough it sorts itself out, but it is does this enough to be annoying.
Cheers steve.

I had tried startx but no joy, have also tried starkde now.
Stiil no joy, i get a long list of error messages, here are the first few.............
xsetroot: unable to open display ''
start kde: starting up...
ksplask: cannot connect to x server
and the list goes on, any ideas??
Try a cheat code at boot.
can you expamd on this for me, i am new to this linux game!!Originally Posted by rrfish72
at what point do i type it and can you suggest something to type.
Steve.
Are you using Lilo to boot? It sounds like you are and it got corrupted.
A safer way to dual boot with XP is to use XPs own boot loader NTLDR --- aka the boot.ini file.
You can use a little utility called bootpart from www.winimage.com.
It will automagically put a line into your boot.ini file as a boot option for Knoppix.
