Improperly Shutdown Suse
Welcome all.
I am new to Linux and wow, it did not take me long to run into a huge snag. I am running Suse Linux Enterprise 10 on a laptop and by some strange reason the computer froze from overheating and I was forced to shutdown improperly. Once I restarted it booted right to the command prompt when it usually instead boots to the default user. I managed to get gnome running using the "startx gnome" command. But when gnome loads, none of my normal extentions load like my wireless driver, the sound driver, etc.
Does anyone have any advice on how to restore gnome to automatically load the default user on start up or fix any other damage I might have done? lol

Hi and Welcome !
Which Graphics Card do you have? Post the output of this
Code:lspci | grep -i vga
It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

"-bash lspci command not found" is the message I get.
That doesn't sound good...

This command needs root privileges in a few distros.
Execute this
Code:su - /sbin/lspci | grep -i vga
