I have recently installed Mandrake 10 on my computer. The first time I booted it after it finished installing it allowed me to use the GUI, KDE. But when I've rebooted the computer and boot Linux again, it loads into the command line. I'm only new at Linux and would rather use the GUI. Any suggestions on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated.

If you want it to load graphical as defualt gain root privilage. Than fire up your favorite editor and pull up /etc/inittab and change the line
id:3:initdefault:
to
id:5:initdefault:
and save it. That when ever you boot up your system it will come up in the graphical desktop.
