ok,
first i updated and upgraded.
then i re installed all the pulseaudio programms using the sudo
now i am getting a bit worried, as the computer still does not go over the kubuntu welcome screen..
(it doesn' t get to the password screen).

is going to recovery mode in the boot screen any help ?

i get the following message:
duplicate sourcse. list entry http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/stable/main i386 packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/dl.google.com_linux_chrome_deb_dists_stable_main_binary-i386_packages.

I'd ignore that for now as it's the Chrome browser but probably a question to ask on the Kubuntu forum

try

Code: Select all

sudo /etc/init.d/kdm start

or

Code: Select all

startx

the first command was not found,
the second seem to do something but going out (ctrl+alt+F7), i was back to the same kubuntu screen.

I would suggest a new thread specific to your login problem under Operating Specific -> Linux or better yet on the Kubuntu forums

I am not sure anymore what the problem is..
thank you for your help and patience.
Guy.

If you execute the command I gave in the other topic, the functionality of your desktop should be restored.
