I already had two users for the box.  After booting the computer I
logged in as the other user and ran startx.  This time the splash screen
appeared and after ostensibly loading KDE-trinity the result was the
same unworkable totally blue screen.

However, the virtual terminal showed several lines of text, ending with
the following two:

FATAL: Module fbcon not found.
SELinux: Disabled on system, not enabling in X server

Does the forgoing provide a clue as to what to do next?

If I need to reinstall completely KDE-trinity 3.5.13 is there a single
command, or are there two (or more) commands which will purge all of it
and then reinstall it?
