After making some updates to the system (Packages > All Packages >Hi
Update if newer versions...) I lost the gui. When I start the system
I get to the boot manager, as normal, but then from there (after
selecting openSUSE) it boots into the command prompt. Logging in and
typing "startx" generates an error (sorry I can't remember the exact
details, but I think it had something to do the nvidia driver).
I think this was probably a result of an update to the nvidia
graphics card. There were only 6 or 7 packages that were updated, and
I think this was one of them. Does anyone know how I can correct
this. I'm totally lost at this point. Fortunately my dual boot to
Windows XP still works, which is how I'm able to communicate.
Thanks for any help.

Have a look here, use the hard (imho the easiest) way...:-)
