shows: "the folder doesn't exist/empty"

I don't know why you keep executing those. The file is called ~/.ICEauthority. Not /home/user/ICEauthority or /home/user/.iceauthority or .iceauthority. So neither of those commands even has a chance of doing anything.

It doesn't work.

By mint forums some said that was for checking "autologin", and when you uncheck you get fine. But I'm on ubuntu.
Some said you have to change the permission of the .iceauthority file. But I can't get graphical.

I installed LXDE, and when I tried to open a folder it showed "denied permission". So, I tried with recovery mode manager. The main folder was /root/, not /XXX/ (my user). And showed 45gb of space (it was around the number that I had of free space).
So, when I log-in with user/pass on loginmanger by my user (XXX), it goes to root. And screw all the things. Just being acessible by recovery manager and lwmn.
How to solve from now on?

KDE installation doesn't create a user account - unless the distribution does that, but it is unlikely in the case of the KDE Workspace.
Please provide the output of "df -h".

What has likely happened is that your /home partition is now full (possibly due to log files, but it could be any number of things) so KDE startup can't proceed as it usually would.

As for why the 'root' account works - it is Linux convention that it is located on the / partition as /root instead, so it can login if /home is unavailable (partition unmountable, etc).

System size usage disc use mountin
/dev/sda5 93gb 46gb 42gb 58% /
udev 1,9gb 0 1,9 0% /dev

That output indicates no problem whatsoever with disk space. It looks fine.

Any new tip?

Change your locale to EN and post the output of e.g. ls -la /home, exactly as it appears on th screen, including the command you typed.

This took some time to note down. Sorry for any mistakes.

Your whole home directory is still owned by root. Do this:

Code: Select all

sudo chown -R camarada /home/camarada
sudo chgrp -R users /home/camarada

Then look at the ls command again. It should now show your username everywhere instead of "root".

I hope you didn't really type all that in by hand
There's easier ways, e.g. writing it to a USB stick or using a tool such as pastebinit.

Greetings!

I'm not an expert. My notebook of commands to execute on console already took 10 full pages of noted lines.
By the way, the last command is not 4096 it's 0:
-rw------ 1 root root 0 mar 10 03:03 .xauthority

Maybe it would be easiest for you to copy your data and install a fresh system.

This can be relevant.

When I commanded chow -R, the login page froze.

I don`t have mountpass, just root and the userpass. By livecd I get encrypted files and can`t get throught it because of missing mountpass.

"froze"? what does that mean? It might take a while. If it really froze, well, then I would start looking for hardware defects (hard disk) tbh ...

Also the password to mount the disk must be available to you somehow otherwise you couldn't boot.

Greetings
