Michel, as far as I understand you want to log in as a new user in
order to see if KDE works, OK ?
If so, just create a new user from a root konsole, like this :
# adduser [username here]
Then you'll be prompted for a new unix password, just choose some
and carry on.
When done, log out of the root session, kill the X server by
pressing <Ctrl><Alt><Backspace> and log in as the new user,
choosing KDE .
If the problem is some setting in your old .kde directory, the new
user's KDE will work just fine.
