Asked by Marco

Hello, I just installed Ubuntu 10.04, the installation went fine but at first reboot I got only command line interface asking for my login details... I am really new to linux and I do not know any command.
How can I return at the normal graphical interface?
Do you need to reinstall ubuntu?
if yes, how I can reinstall it from the command line?

thank you
Marco

Login into the system and run the following command
