x-server

[jackren]

I tried to upgrade kdm and it failed , I tried gdm and xdam , but no succes
I can't start X not as root and not as user.
I somewhere read a posting that I should: apt-get install x-window-system-corer
apt-get install kde-core
apt-get install kdm

to get X runing again.
I tried this put big mistake.
I get error after apt-get downloaded several packages and tries to install them. (libx11-6,libx11-dev, libxext-dev,libxext6, and x-dev)

try "apt-get -f install" to fix it says, but doesn't help.

How do I get apt-get running again and how do I get X up again?

Change to the /var/cache/apt/archives and you need to use dpkg -i --force-overwrite packages_needed_to_be_forced (these would be all the packages you are now getting errors with) then you will definitely want to use dpkg --configure -a to make sure all your packages are configured after the error.
