[vox-tech] white screen

Greetings:
Had my linux installed at the installfest.  Worked great at the time.  3d 
acceleration was rightchous.

I now have a new problem in which I cannot go to my desktop environment-just 
a white screen.  It doesn give me a cursor in which can be moved: changes to 
a pointed hand-link hand-when placed at certain areas of the screen.  I 
guess this means that the mechanics are inplemented but everything is a 
wash.

Grub does its thing, loads my os, then gives me a user screen as usual. 
When I try to log in as any user, including root, I wind up with a white 
screen.

I might be able to muddle thru and go to the x files (funny-used to watch 
this show a lot), and change a few options but this is very challenging for 
my given my lvl of expertise.

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Jimbo
