Not booting

[splunge]

Hi all.

I've been using kubuntu for a few days now and have found it to be great.

I have tried various distros before, but none have kept my interest and made me consider switching from windows as my primary os.

I have installed a few applications with success and even updated to the latest nvidia drivers.

My problems came when I last rebooted. It booted to the kubuntu splash screen, but then dropped down to a text version and the last line I could read was
*starting timidity++ ALSA midi emulation

The last thing I did before I rebooting was nvidia drivers and after doing some reading I think this may be the cause......but I cant fix it!!!

I have booted into recovery mode and tried apt-get remove all nvidia components I can think of, I reinstalled an older version, I removed and ran xorg reconfigure, but I STILL cant get back to KDE.

Any ideas guys or should I just bite the bullet and reinstall.

I don't want to as I think fixing it will teach me more.

Thanks in advacne for any response.

Re: Not booting

Thanks for reading guys, but I'm all sorted now.

I went to the X11 directory and looked for a backup to my xorg.conf, as suggested by someone and there was one.

I copied this to the xorg.conf and rebooted....still no good.

I edited it manually and changed nvidia to nv and we're now back in kubuntu

Cheers all.
