After installing Ubuntu 13.04 os on my windows8. after restarting the machine, i provided the user name and passowrd, But its in the command prompt only. Its not going to show my desktop like windows.
Please help me out of this problem please.
Which Linux distro did you installed? And which version?
If you installed server edition, it has not desktop environment
When you are at command prompt, try to click CTRL+ALT+F7
. If nothing changes, try combinations with all F-buttons - it should switch beetween consoles and GUI.
sudo startx
? And, what VGA card do you have?
