Uh-oh X server problems. Help pleas!

Okay.. I unchecked start xfs server at boot to stop install nvidia drivers... (I am a newb im sorry..). So now when I start up I am stuck in none-gui command prompt (the same place I go to when I type "init 3"). Can anyone tell me the command to start up xfs manually. Thank you very much.

I am using Mandrake 10.1 right now, Thanks for any help ^^

not quite sure what you mean by "xfs" but try

Code:

---

startx

from the terminal (logged on as the a user, but not root)

HTH

You could tell the system to load the XFS through the terminal with the *vi* command. It should be somewhere in the /etc/X11/xinitrc/xinit file !
