Default Xubuntu

Hello everyone,

I don't know what I am doing today. I installed Xubuntu 6.10 on my old computer. Everytime time I turn it on, it boots straight to command line only with no graphich session. I need to load window manager so that I can use open office, firefox, etc on Xubuntu, but I can't figure out. I heard that Xubuntu is using xfce for window manager. I already tried to from command line "startx" to load graphic for it, but it doesn't work. Can anyone in here hook me up? Thank you so much.
