[09:30] because if i get fat i have to carry the extra weight you know [09:31] and my feet will get tired [09:31] Correct, so just take it easy and eat the right stuff [09:31] Can I worry you with a niggle? [09:32] well, convince a woman in love that all the lekker goed isnt all healthy [09:32] yessir anytime [09:32] thks [09:32] I broke Juanita's system [09:32] it wont login [09:32] kde? [09:33] Lmga! Have been googling solutions since yestarday [09:33] ai! [09:33] unity of course [09:33] tell me what happens [09:33] 14.04 [09:34] so where does it stop [09:34] im sure we have been this route before [09:34] do you get to boot prompt [09:34] It opens in the login screen, then when I put the password it goes blac and returns to login, does not say wrong password [09:35] ok [09:35] yes I get boot prompt [09:35] ctrl+alt+F3 [09:35] let me just reboot, am running on live cd [09:35] then sudo aptitude reinstall ubuntu-desktop [09:36] either that or your graphics isnt working again [09:38] it first says login incorrect, then accepts password on second round [09:39] aptitude command not found [09:39] sudp apt install aptitude [09:39] just use apt-get instead [09:39] Kilos: no man [09:40] don't use aptitude anymore [09:40] oh [09:40] oh my [09:40] ok [09:40] i use it all the time [09:40] if you're on 15.10+ use "apt" and on older systems just use "apt-get" [09:40] only use aptitude if you're using the task system [09:40] 14.04 works on apt only [09:40] sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop --reinstall [09:41] ya i use apt and aptitude still [09:41] ive been here but lets try again [09:42] i need to learn how apt does reinstall [09:42] ok its done [09:43] ok and [09:43] do you know what graphics it has [09:43] nope [09:43] if it doesnt work on reboot now you might need to reinstall the graphics driver [09:44] ok sudo reboot? [09:44] yip [09:44] by the way, I installed gnome desktop after googling [09:45] is that what caused it [09:45] no [09:45] it was seeking a workaround [09:45] have you at long last given up on unity [09:45] it started when I ran a command, let me find it [09:46] debbie has 14.04 kde on her lappy [09:46] she has no other choice [09:46] im bigger than her [09:47] I ran install clamtk [09:47] then it went to the login screen and has never been beyond that [09:47] thats anivirus [09:47] yes [09:48] so is it rebooting? [09:48] its booting but same result, login screen and does not react to password [09:48] ok [09:48] sudo apt install gdm [09:50] it does login incorrect first time every time [09:50] gdm is already newest version [09:50] oh my you even broke that [09:51] is it loggin in on lightdm or gdm [09:51] perhaps the "login incorrect" at first attempt is part of the problem? [09:52] dont know about lightdm or gdm, how do I tell? [09:52] i remember i had hassles with lightdm but using gdm sorted that [09:52] we ask the guys [09:52] or google [09:53] maybe there is some command to change desktop managers [09:53] I have more or less exhausted my google abilities [09:53] sudo apt-get install gdm --reinstall [09:54] running... [09:54] done [09:54] re boot [09:55] but did not download any data? [09:55] ok [09:55] it said one package but zero contents [09:55] rebooting anyway [09:56] https://www.google.co.za/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwiqqqrJwP_OAhXJkZQKHbyCB-YQFggcMAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.webupd8.org%2F2011%2F07%2Fhow-to-switch-between-gdm-lightdm-or.html&usg=AFQjCNE8K4GOKQAVCcYV82xYQTySz7p3Rg&sig2=nR1SEvsfP8ScnqOGTq7w4w [09:56] read that and see if they give a command to switch dm's [09:56] Lets have a lok thks [09:57] i gotta do something quick then will be beack [09:59] ok [10:02] Why do I think that the refusal of password in terminal the first time every time has something to do with the problem?
