What errors do you get if you run the command 'startx' ( without the quotes ) from the command line? |
sir
thank you for your sugession but after using these cammand i got this boot option= UUID=6c830495-fcc5-4cd1-6603-83ec9ff25f60 slpash=silent VGA=788 and screen still black as it is previous before using the cammand. |
Did you just press enter when that message appears?
It would appear your system is failing to boot early in the boot sequence. Was this a clean install, or an upgrade from 2009? |
Dear Sir,
This is new clean installation After getting this: Boot option= UUID=6c830495-fcc5-4cd1-6603-83ec9ff25f60 slpash=silent VGA=788 I PRESS THE ENTER TAB And screen still black as it is previous before using the command. |
After you press Enter, do you see any disk activity? If yes, we need to go look at the logs to get a handle on what is failing. If no, then I would bet we have a problem with grub, and the disk setup.
Let me know... |
Check out the Mandriva 2010 Errata
There is a mention of possible blank screen issues for certain video chips. The workaround is provided. |

You should also try the speedboot=no option.
