Hi, I enabled the visual effects in systemsettings but without updating to the newest drivers for my video card. This caused my screen to go black (all i can see is my mouse pointer). Does anyone know how to get the video output back, a konsole command maybe disabling the effects (im assuming i’ll have to run it in failsafe mode)?? Im new to linux :confused:.

Im running openSUSE 11.0 64bit KDE4. Video card is ATI 2600xt. Thanks for any help

I think its similar to:

I don’t know of any better way than removing ~/.kde4
What I’d suggest is renaming it instead of removing it. You might have some torrents or something in there that you still want.

EDIT:
I’m not sure about your level so here’s what you should type.

mv ~/.kde4 ~/.kde4-backup
