I apologize for few details - this problem arose a few weeks ago and I have only now gotten around to it, I'm running a virtual machine of Arch, and everything was going fine until I attempted to make GNOME start at boot. I suppose I should have attempted to start GNOME in terminal first in order to test it, but I guess that's one thing I'll learn from this.
Anyway, after the screen turns on, various messages appear on screen, typical bootstrapping messages, which scroll past too quickly for me to read. Among the last is "Starting GNOME display manager", then the screen shows black.
Are there any quick fixes that I may be missing, regarding video setting on my virtual machine? Otherwise, how can I salvage my installation? I have a cd with puppylinux that i'm prepared to boot with if necessary.
Thanks for the help! If there's any more information I can give you, please ask.

Realizing now that I probably posted this in the wrong subforum, but I'm not sure how to remedy that. My apologies.
