If you are logging in to the machine via SSH, make sure to enable X 
Windows forwarding. If you are connecting from a Windows box, you also 
need to install an X Server for Windows.

If you are logging in through the VMWare console, make sure you are 
running in runlevel 5 (Graphical user interface), not in runlevel 3 
(text-only).

In either case, you must have installed some graphical user interface - 
Gnome, KDE or the like. Plain text mode won't do it (actually, 
theoretically it should be possible as long as you are running an X 
server on the client machine you are connecting from, but I don't think 
most distributions support that setup very well. It is also somewhat 
insecure).
