I booted up my Kubuntu box and when I logged in, I got nothing but a
black screen with a mouse pointer. I let it sit for 5 or 10 minutes but
nothing changed. I have Kubuntu 22.04 with Plasma version 5.24.7. I
found the following on a Reddit thread.
~$ mkdir kde-backup/.config kde-backup/.local kde-backup/.config/session
~$ sudo mv .config/*plasma* kde-backup/.config
~$ sudo mv .config/*kde* kde-backup/.config
~$ sudo mv .config/*kwin* kde-backup/.config
~$ sudo mv .local/share/kded5 kde-backup/.local
~$ sudo mv .config/session/kwin_* kde-backup/.config/session
First I pressed control+alt+backspace to get back to the login screen.
Then I went to the console, did the instructions above then logged back
in. I was back to the default settings you'd get when first installing
the os.
Which files and/or directories actually contain the customizations I
made to the desktop? I'd like to have just those files/directories
backed up so I can restore the settings if this black screen with mouse
pointer bug happens again.
Thanks.
