Installing Ubuntu 10.04.1 in vmware workstation

What happens if you type "startx" in the command prompt?

typed in as said and loads of text appearred on screen but at the end it says xinit:no such process (errno 3): server error.

If you need anymore info let me know.

Thanks

Did you MD5 test the ISO you are booting to?

The liveCD already has an account which you are free to use and it is passwordless. You will only need to set a password if you install the OS to a virtual disk drive.

Yes I checked the MDS. Not getting to the login point to try to login with any default account
