@Ste1lar I don't use DE's much but I'll try to help if you still need it. Are you using lightdm and what package did you install for kde?

@Ste1lar okay, I don't know anything about sddm, but otherwise it sounds like you may need more kde packages. Imma check this real quick

@Ste1lar my guess is dpkg crashed when yr display server crashed, leaving your system in a broken state. try booting your system, hitting CTRL-ALT-[F2] to drop to a terminal, log in, and run: sudo apt-get --fix-broken install
