X has probably failed to start with your new kernel. Have a root around
in /var/log/messages and /var/log/XFree86.0.log and see if you can see
any errors.

Subject: [mythtv-users] kernel name question
I just did an:
# apt-get install kernel#2.4.22-1.2188.nptl_48.rhfc1.at
kernel-source#2.4.22-1.2188.nptl_48.rhfc1.at
...to upgrade my kernel. Now at boot time, I see 2 new entries. One
is the expected "Fedora Core (2.4.22-1.2188.nptl_48.rhfc1.at)", but if
I pick that one, it leaves me in single-user mode. The other
(unexpected, at least to me) one is "Fedora Core
(2.4.22-1.2188.nptl)", and when I choose it at boot, it starts up X as
expected (i.e. as before the upgrade).
Is there reason to use one over the other? I will freely admit to not
understanding the kernel naming convention (as in, I have no idea what
"nptl" means). If I should indeed be using the ...nptl_48.rhfc1.at
kernel, I could use a nudge as to how to make it boot into multiuser
mode.
