Hello, I'm new on linux.
I installed kubuntu yesterdeay, and to day I changed the login-pass screen (usplash I guess), to one that looks like a debian icon on the center. well... rebot, and before I get to that usplash, I get the "Theme not usable with authentication method 'Username + password (classic)' alert.
Then, in the screen, I can't write anything... just take the enter, delete, and esc (oh, and I cand copy paste by mouse)
So that's for now. I hope you take piece of your time with this
Thanks!!, and sorry for my english

I believe usplash is the grub wallpaper. you are at the kdm login screen. If you can, login in text mode then type
startx
which should get you back in to KDE where you can change your login screen settings back.

Hey t2kburl, thanks for the answer.
Here is what I get when typing startx
Fatal server error:
Server is already active for display 0
If this server is no longer runnint, remove /tmp/.X0-lock
and start again.

I'm not sure what the next step is, but I'm sure someone here knows.
Good luck!

You can try doing what the error message says and remove the lock. You will need to do this as root.
so try
sudo rm -rf /tmp/.X0-lock
and then try startx again

Well I did it:
sudo rm -rf /temp/.X0-lock
startx
and it gives:
"_XSERVTransSocketUNIXCreateListener: ...SocketCreateListener() failed
_XSERVTransMakeAllCOTSServerListeners: server already running
Fatal server error:
Cannot establish any listening sockets - Make sure an X server isn't already running

Please also check the log file at "/var/log/Xorg.o.log" for additional information

I hope it helps
Thanks
