Can't get into KDE desktop anymore.
Hi, I am running KDE Linux Mint 13 on my mom's computer. She has a gateway desktop that runs great, no problems with Linux KDE.
She told me it's been running slow lately so I told her about Mate desktop may be a little faster. I remotely connected to her computer and installed it using the terminal.
I logged off and had her to select it and log back in. I noticed when I got connected, the icons weren't there and it was a mess. I tried different commands to fix them by looking up the correct commands like --fix-missing etc.
It still wasn't working so I typed sudo -xkill all or something like that. I lost connection so I asked her to reboot the machine.
Now it's doing nothing but going to a blank screen with a cursor. ctl alt del doesn't work. so she has to manually reboot it.
Now it's just looping to that same screen everytime she reboots because it's set to log in automatically!
Now I have no ideal what to do, we've been trying different things for the last 5 hours. please help.
All I want to do is get to back to the log in screen and the problem will be resolve just by selecting the default desktop!
