Greetings all;

I updated tde about 2 hours ago, 300+ files.

Its totally fscked, defaulting to xfce4 and nothing but a tiny terminal 
works. But that terminal is enough to get more started. 

Can't find kmail from the xfce4 menu but kmail is what it reports 
it cannot find so $path is screwed.

I've gone single and tried to relink default-display back 
to /opt/trinity/bin/tdm, failed. Tried to reset it in /etc/default, 
failed. Tried just about everthiing including re-installing the 
trinty-base & twm/tdm stuffs. no luck

I finally found /opt/trinity/bin/kmail and have it running but no clue if 
I can send this.

How in tuncket do I restore my default desktop to tde now??? I 
asccidently touched the folder icon, it opened a huge requester asnd 
froze everthing but gkrellm which I had found and started so I could see 
if the robots were DDOSing me, so I had to re-start it with the front 
panel reset button.

I likely have the whole thing to fix as right now its cycleing back and 
forth as its starting x with a tde login but clears that screen and 
eventually starts xfce4. And here come the damned bots, so I gotta get 
iptables running.

Thanks for any help. debian stretch on amd64 if that helps.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
