Hi there.
I am now at my 6th version of my opensuse build and I can’t get it to start the graphical login.
I am trying my build out on a VirtualBox using the live cd.
This is what happens during installation :
It will install properly. No error messages at all. I get the (graphical) options screen to select language and screen resolution settings, so far so good.
I select the default (top) installation for my opensuse and hit enter.
Then I will get the verbose progress and when it’s finished, the verbose will ask me for my user name and password.
Then I enter those correctly and the verbose will tell me to enjoy.
I am then left with a blinking cursor, and don’t know what to do next.
This is not what should have happened since in my build I had selected Configuration > Startup > Default runlevel > 5: Graphical login
I can find no reason for this failure since on my Windows system I have tried out several other Linux systems in the same way and never experienced this problem before.
During the assembling of my packages I have payed close attention to select all packages required for a graphical login.
An other problem is that although I selected the default language for my build to be Dutch, the default language during setup is still English.
I hope there is someone who would be kind enough to be prepared to help me out, I am so eager to start trying out my self made OS.
Sincerely,
William
