Installed 11.10 on Dell Inspiron 5150 last night after successfully testing w/live cd.

When booting from hd everything looked good until it cam time for the desktop to show up. Black screen, reboot, try again, same issue.

Has anyone seen this before? What I ended up doing, for the time being, was install another distro, which is working at present.

System has 2G ram a dedicated nvidia 5200 gpu, duel boot with win xp on 250 Gb hd.

Didn't even think to go to konsole and do a startx.
