Did you someone get booted into runlevel 3? If you try 'telinit 5' at the prompt what do you get? Try starting GDM manually with 'gdm &' and see what happens then.

You probably need to configure that mouse, I assume its an evdev mouse (logitech or microsoft wireless)? My Apple MightyMouse 'just works' but I haven't tried plugging in my Logitech MX revolution yet (that one does work with evdev configuration, but maybe not without any xorg.conf editing, I dont' know yet).

"Did you someone get booted into runlevel 3? If you try 'telinit 5' at the prompt what do you get?"
Yes stuck in runlevel 3. If I telinit 5 or kdm (Using KDE) I can go to the login window and on in to KDE Desktop, What isn't configured right ?
As for the Bluetooth mouse , it''s a Logitech V470 Cordless Laser, How would i configure that ? I did as SU a hidd --search and it connected and worked until I rebooted.
Thanks for your help Jim

If you installed in text mode (as per your previous mails) then the system assumes you're going to want to run in text mode as well.
Edit /etc/inittab to change the default runlevel to 5 (graphical).

Not sure about KDE, but in GNOME you fire up the Bluetooth preferences, go over to "Services", go to "Input Service", and hit the "Add" button.
