I am a newb linux user. And i am running suse 9.3 pro.
When i first installed it a couple of days ago, it booted into the desktop
fine the first four or five times.
And not when i turn on my computer and boot linux and loads the devices, then it prompts me...

UserName:
Password:
(which it never asked before and i dont think i changed any settings)

After i imput my user name and password, it accepts it and then tells me to "Have Fun"

Next it prompts
UserName@Linux:

From here how can i get to the desktop?
