After the "black screen", try pressing CTRL-ALT-F1. If you see a
(text) login prompt, you are probably having issues with your video
card (or monitor).
What video card are you using?
Some things to try:
Go back to the graphical VT by pressing CTRL-ALT-F7 - the screen
should go black again. Try pressing CTRL-ALT-MINUS or CTRL ALT-PLUS
several times - you might get lucky and a higher/lower res will show
up. If not, go back to VT1 (CTRL-ALT-F1) and login. Edit
/etc/X11/xorg.conf in vi, pico, or whatever - in the "Device" section
change the driver to vesa. Save xorg.conf. Press CTRL-ALT-F7 again,
then CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE (or reboot). If the graphical login appears,
then it's definitely the video driver. If not...?
