log in misunderstanding

ok… i don’t know a thing bout linux… well i know enough but not enough… if that makes since… this just may be a simple fix… but i just installed linux on my system from a KDE live cd that i just downloaded.

it ran fine. loged in… connected to the internet downloaded updates. and restarted the computer… what is the issue now… is that when i log in… it opens the KDE (desktop, task bar and all) then it brings me right back to the log in screen…

any ideas???

It is not normal that is for sure.
With this info info is difficult to say what went wrong.
But you have also a failsafe mode.
What happens if you log in in the failsafe mode
and give the command startx

i will check it as soon as i get back to my computer…
