Hello rootjb0.
I tried your method and was technically able to log in albeit without the gui. I am also able to login in recovery mode. when I type "ls" into the command prompt and/or change directory, it appears as though all files and programs I saved and downloaded are still intact, but as I said I have not been able to access the gui.
Thank you for your help btw!
edit:
I looked into the other posts on the forum and this method seemed to work for me:
Code:
root@kali:~# apt-get update
//wait for update
root@kali:~# apt-get upgrade -y
//wait for upgrade
root@kali:~# apt-get install -f gdm3
So as of right now everything seems to be working okay! The gui is up and running and seems responsive. I will let you know if any more issues arise.
Thank you!!
