I'm currently downloading and installing LXDE per your suggestion using the apt-get command. Hopefully nothing blows up
rumblpak the killall apt-get function works beautifully . How did I not know about this before?
UPDATE: LXDE failed during the installation, gave me a repo error, so I tried updating my repo's and I've been locked out again lmao. Killall and the other commands rumblpak gave me didn't bail me out this time. I'm rebooting, lets try this again lol
Yet Another Update: Everything was unlocked upon reboot, phew! I was able to update my repo's again. Now I'm trying to install LXDE one last time before I hit the hay
UPDATE 3: Okay guys, so I got LXDE installed. It did give quite a few I/O errors during installation, but it did finish. FCE-Ultra did the same thing to me, but we all know that works fine. When I try to use the Startx command to launch the GUI i'm left with this error:

Does anyone think this is salvageable? My guess is the I/O errors were a result of the installer not knowing exactly how to deal with the wii/wii u hardware, hence why FCE-Ultra also did this. It seems to me that as a result of not knowing how to work with some of the hardware, these I/O errors are popping up, and in this case it left me with a corrupt installation of LXDE. I mean the GUI does attempt to launch, but gives directory errors when trying, then fails. One could assume from that, that the installation went fwonky.
So that being said, does anybody here think there's a way I could "patch this up" to make it work. Perhaps correct whatever directory issues there are and hope for the best?
I'm heading to bed right now, but I will be keeping an eye on this thread for ideas. Any input at all would be greatly appreciated. . Goodnight GBATempers....
Repair the packages, X did not install correctly. If that does not help you are not getting X.
