It either gets as far as the KDE desktop loading up, plays a little tune, then keeps playing the last note of that tune on, and on, and on... Eventually I get bored, and switch the thing off.
Then, when I startup again, it only gets as far as the KDE loading screen, it says something like "restoring session" and *then* hangs.
Well, I can kinda answer my own question, as I found this on a forum somewhere:
"This is a very common problem. There is a bug with some nvidia and ati graphics chips. The way around is to either get the mandriva updates from easyurpmi or install the nvidia/ati drivers. You will have to do this from the command line."
I have no idea, however, what this means. Can anyone help?!
TIA
