Hi all,

Don't know what caused it but one morning I booted up the PC and ended up at console log-in as, you probably guessed from subject, my KDE is well and truly goosed...

OK, not a problem.... did some lateral thinking and just booted into Icewm etc... but I'd like to get KDE back up and running. (At least now I've tried a few of the alternatives, also I installed Enlightenment outta curiousity.... check it out!)

Anyways, messing about with apt-get to re-install = unmet dependencies, which I haven't been able to get sorted yet.. My question is, can I do a re-install Windows-style ie: fix the problem WITHOUT screwing up my settings/software, or does a re-install from the Knoppix CD put me back to square one? Just wanna know, thanks in advance.

Mike.

PS I'll send a tenner to the wittiest response quoting "re-install Windows-style ie: fix the problem WITHOUT screwing up my settings" LMAO
