X stopped working, now i can't get into the GUI. I was wondering if someone here may be able to help.
Here is the post at Ubuntuforums

Basically here is whats happening.
I installed a theme from kde-look.org it was for KDE 3.2 or 3.3 and i have 3.5 final so maybe that has something to do with it. I rebooted and now im just presented with the console
ubuntu login: darren
password:
darren:$
That's basically what i get too. No gui login it's as if it has disappeared!
I try typing 'startx' and i get these errors:
