My PC has FreeBSD 12.0 installed.
It booted straight into KDE and I logged in from there.
Recently I was installing a new WiFi dongle which went OK
I think I was doing something with the DHCP config (adding SYNCDHCP or suchlike) when suddenly the PC shut down.
When it rebooted I had lost the Wifi config, defaulted back to a US keyboard and it no longer booted into KDE.
I ignored the keyboard for now
The WiFi will no longer connect despite reentering the config but I will leave that for now
When I enter X it just loads a black screen and the only way out is to remove the power and reboot.
startx brings up a blank desktop.
2 questions:
How can a config be obliterated like that?
Help! How do I get my KDE desktop back? I don't even know where to start looking.
