Hi Folks, I have been running debian 6.0 testing on a desktop with an amd64 processor. Before shutting down last night I used synaptic to check for and install upgrades: many were installed.
This morning kde won't start. When I boot the system goes into what I interpret as "terminal mode". When I type in "startkde" as user I get "DISPLAY is not set or cannot to the X server". When I type "startkde" as su I get: ------ Kaboom Settings Dump------ kdehome - "/root/.kde" - exists? YES kde4 - "/root/kde4" - exists? NO kdebackup - "/root/kde3-backup" exists? NO kdestamp = "/root/.local/kaboom" exists? NO kaboom log - "/root/.kaboom.log" --------------------------------------------------- kaboom cannot connect to X server I tried using apt-get to install kde but was told the newest version was all ready installed. Fortunately I already have a recent backup. I have downloaded debian 6.0.0-amd64-i386-netinst.iso and I'm considering re-installing. Does anyone have a better idea?
